Power, transparency, clarity and rectilinear lines: this is a seminal work of contemporary architecture.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>This conceptual artist works with language and text, using them in different forms. In the concourse, American Jenny Holzer uses words that are the foundation of French law (civil code, human rights). Playing with reflections of the windows and the polished granite floor, the words seem to go on forever as they slowly scroll down. On the Loire side, the quotes are related to justice and feature the words of philosophers and women writers of past and present.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"VAN22_COPYRIGHT_TAG\" id=\"tag_22311\"
