Modern Art Fair
Place de la Bastille.
28 April 2008
Place de la Bastille is one of the most famous attractions of Paris, best known for the Bastille prison which used to stand there until July 14, 1789, when it was destroyed during the French Revolution. But it is not only history that attracts tourists to the site - various events are organised here as well. One of them is the biannual Grand Marché de l'Art Contemporain - La Bastille Modern Art Fair, which takes place 29 April - 4 May 2008. The event attracts around 500 artists and 40,000 visitors, who arrive to Place de la Bastille to observe numerous artworks, including canvasses, ceramics and installations, created by the city's most talented artists. The subject for this spring is "horses." Next event will take place in October, and it will focus on Cartography.
Chateau de Versailles' fountains go green
Reconstruction will help reduce water consumption.
29 April 2008
The famous sculptural fountains at the Chateau de Versailles (in the outskirts of Paris), will undergo a major reconstruction which will help reduce water consumption.
A total of 4,500 litres of water is used by the fountains per hour in dry seasons. Just like three centuries ago, water is delivered by Machine de Marly - a system of huge waterwheels and pumps that take water from the Seine river. The project will allow channeling 1.6 million sq m of rain water from a reservoir at Sataury Plateau into the chateau's Pice d'Eau des Suisses.
Before the modern system was built, water had been collected by various means: canals, pumps, gravitational hydraulics, Pompe water tower.. Even then its amount was not enough to make all the fountains operate. The new system could improve the situation. Reconstruction will take five years.

Every spring the Jardin Shakespeare in Paris turns into an open-air theatre, welcoming visitors for classic plays both in French and English.

This year the open-air festival starts May 1st with a show of Scottish folk dancing, and focuses on European plays. The highlights of the event are: La Locandiera by Carlo Goldoni, Twelfth Night and A Midsummer's Night Dream by Wiliam Shakespeare, and Les Plaideurs by Jean Racine.
Wax statue of Shahrukh Khan
At the Grevin Wax Museum.
30 April 2008
Visitors to the Grévin Wax Museum in Paris can now observe a new attraction - wax statue of the popular Indian actor Shahrukh Khan, who works in Bollywood films. To mark the event there was a closed ceremony organised inside the museum. The star appeared at the ceremony with his wife Gauri Khan and his friend Karan Johar, a filmmaker, and was welcomed by African and Indian dancers along with a crowd of fans eager to get autographs.
This is the second Khan's wax statue in one of the prestigious wax museums. The first was unveiled in London's Madame Tussauds' museum in 2007. This indicates the growing success and popularity of the actor and the Indian cinema in Europe.
The Grévin Wax Museum was founded in 1882 by the French journalist Arthur Meyer, who collaborated with a cartoonist, sculptor and a costume designer Alfred Grevin. Shahrukh is the second Indian, after Mahatma Gandhi, to get his statue at the museum.

However, the exhibition also encourages us to "put aside our prejudices that are tied to Napoleonic symbols" and discover some 250 exhibits selected from the most prestigious museums of the region. Those are golden and silver pieces, plates, furniture, textile, ceramics, wallpapers etc. with eagles, butterflies, flowers, swans and other "non-Napoleonic" objects depicted on them.
