Bertrand Delanoë,
Mayor of Paris
Each autumn for seven years, Nuit Blanche lights up Paris. For one sleepless night,
dreams are played out on the streets as the city reveals itself from an entirely new
perspective. Each year, as this marvellous night draws near, Parisians wonder what it
will bring. Which parts of the city will it involve? What events have been planned?
What atmosphere will they find? This year, for the 7th Nuit Blanche, artistic directors
Hervé Chandès and Ronald Chammah extend an invitation to travel as they embark
us on an exploration of images.
For the 2008 Nuit Blanche, Paris’ buildings become giant screens.
Parisians and
visitors to the city become actors, spectators and projectionists as films and
animated images illuminate their nocturnal wanderings.
For one night only, video artists and film-makers transform Paris’ stations into a giant
Bollywood film set, an operatic stage, a photo studio or a projection room. Works
orchestrated by outstanding international artists suspend the hustle and bustle of
station platforms and concourses to replace it with the silence and magic of
creation.
For one night only, the sky is reflected on the Tour Saint-Jacques, the Tour
Montparnasse is transformed and, for the space of a moment, churches are home to
the unity of free people, carried by the voice of Patti Smith or the images filmed by
Javier Téllez.
For one night only, art guides us through the landmarks of Paris, places so familiar we
no longer notice them.
The passer-by is prompted to stop and see, letting the poetry and emotion of Paris
resonate through the city. The spirit of Nuit Blanche is there, captured in this moment
of sharing, freedom, daring and openness.

Christophe Girard,
Deputy mayor for Culture
This 7th Nuit Blanche, under the artistic direction of Hervé Chandès and Ronald
Chammah, once again invites lovers of art and culture to explore new parts of Paris
in the hands of artists from around the world.
On Saturday October 4th 2008, Paris’ stations will become landmarks on the Nuit
Blanche map.
In partnership with SNCF, France’s railway company, artists will
transform these places of meeting and movement by letting in curiosity,
astonishment and dreams. Through innovative and ambitious projects, they will fill
Parisians with the desire to rediscover their city and have them experience the
unexpected.
In addition to the city’s stations, several churches together with the Tour SaintJacques, Tour Montparnasse and numerous other sites across Paris will be "visited" by
artists whose mission is to transform them for one special night.
Our wish, from the very first Nuit Blanche in 2002, is that this "sleepless night" should be
a tribute to Paris’ heritage and to the contemporary artists who give Paris its
vibrancy, and invite us to constantly renew our perception of a modern city with an
open outlook on the world. We are delighted that, thanks to Nuit Blanche, Paris can
show itself to be a vast and welcoming stage, one that looks to the future and is
open to French and international artists.
Through the Nuits Blanches Europe network of the different European capitals that
host their own Nuit Blanche, modelled on the Parisian event, Nuit Blanche embraces
new projects and new experiences.
On other continents too, numerous capital cities around the world have been
seduced by the extraordinary magic of Nuit Blanche.
I wish you a good and
beautiful night of surprises and inspiration to be shared by all.

Véronique Dubarry,
Deputy mayor for Disability
Once again this year, we wanted to make this marvellous opportunity to discover or
rediscover Paris something for everyone to enjoy.
The Nuit Blanche programme reflects this desire through cosmopolitan works that
address questions of diversity and different perceptions, and Javier Téllez’s original
and universal work, in which blind people share with us their emotions and
sensations, takes its place naturally among them.
Some of the associated projects, such as Des voix dans la nuit by the non-profit
organisation Acoeurvoix, present the work of disabled artists.
Beyond the fact that virtually all the venues for the works are accessible to the
disabled, Paris shows its continued determination to include each of its citizens in
every aspect of the city, from its most ordinary to its most exceptional manifestations.
I wish you all a night rich in emotions and experiences to share.

Nuit Blanche 2008,
by Hervé Chandès
and Ronald Chammah,
Artistic directors
This Nuit Blanche takes place in a deliberately small number of sites, either stations,
towers or churches.
We chose stations as places of transit where Paris and its suburbs meet. We chose
churches to bring Nuit Blanche into places of silence. We chose Tour Saint-Jacques
and Tour Montparnasse, along with the Comédie Française, to provoke ancient and
modern. These places, known to all, have been handed over to the artists as the
settings for dense and ambitious projects, so that the public can then immerse
themselves in their universe.
We have given each of these artists the means to develop spectacular projects,
without compromise. For many of them, this is the first time they have embarked on
works of this scale. We wanted the 2008 Nuit Blanche to be both thought-provoking
and capable of engaging every audience through this choice of international artists
in the multiple disciplines of film, contemporary art, music…

PRESS RELEASE
_____________________________________________
Since the first edition in 2002, Nuit Blanche has enjoyed immense success among a tireless
and inquiring public. Since then, the Parisian model continues to sow the seeds for Nuits
Blanches in Europe and at the four corners of the globe, from Madrid to Gaza, from Brussels to
Miami.
Free and open to all, this 7th Nuit Blanche will be a sleepless night but certainly not a
dreamless one as the public gaze in wonder at Paris by night as they have never seen it
before. From the most everyday sites to the monuments on which the city’s reputation is built,
Paris is draped in the magic and colour of astonishing works by artists and creators from all
disciplines.
This year’s programme, under the artistic direction of Hervé Chandès and Ronald Chammah,
is built around Paris’ main railway stations which, day after day, pour their never-ending
stream of passengers into the city.
Essential and emblematic, stations are bustling hubs,
places of transit for people often too busy to pay attention to the environment or the
architecture of these often listed buildings.
Five stations form the backbone of the 2008 Nuit Blanche. Artists such as American Tony
Oursler (Gare du Nord), France’s Pierrick Sorin (Gare de l’Est) and Indian Shaad Ali (Gare de
Lyon) take over their concourses, facades and platforms with their magic, inviting each of us
to look differently at our everyday urban environment. The number of sites in this year’s
circuit, which also takes in churches and monuments with noteworthy contributions from Patti
Smith in Église Saint-Germain-des-Prés and Gu Dexin at the Tour Saint-Jacques, is deliberately
smaller, preferring the impact of exceptional works over dispersion.
Including the abundance of associated projects (Christian Boltanski at the Musée d’art et
d’histoire du Judaïsme and la maison rouge–fondation antoine de galbert; Otto Piene at
Place de Catalogne as part of the France-Nordrhein-Westfalen season; Nuit de l’Europe in
the gardens at Parc de Bercy as part of the European Cultural Season), over seventy artistic
projects transform the capital for the space of one night.
Visual arts, installations, projections, concerts, dance, readings, live performances, poetry and
music: freedom, humour, reflections and derision are expressed through creations which,
however shortlived, engrave themselves in the memory of spectators who are dazzled and
surprised by Nuit Blanche 2008.

Larger-than-life teenagers sing and whisper in a film made with the help of forty
pupils from Grange aux Belles secondary school and projected onto the towering
main facade of the Gare du Nord. Meanwhile, an acoustic installation fills the
station's forecourt with the sound of muttering children and other noises straight from
the artist’s imagination. Working with Constance DeJong and Tony Conrad, Tony
Oursler also uses the station announcement system to create an "industrial opera" of
train whistles blowing, some recorded, some live.
-Tony Oursler trained at the California Institute of Arts and at the Rockland Community College
before returning to live and work in New York, where he was born in 1957. Famous the world
over, he has taken the video installation away from the screen, choosing instead to project
his works directly onto objects, buildings or balloon-like spheres. His videos become hybrid
creations, both funny and disturbing. Most of his installations include soundtracks and
frequently portray fragments of human bodies; they show the ordinary in its most bizarre
forms.

Pierrick Sorin’s three projects all take place outside the station. Taking souvenir
photos as its theme, Vous êtes tous mes amis invites the public to join the artist in two
photo studios. The resulting portraits, which show their subjects standing next to the
smiling artist, are then projected onto a panoramic screen on the forecourt in front of
the station. These are the kind of holiday snaps or family photos that just about
anyone can have at home, except that, bizarrely, they all include the artist in one
role or another (friend, lover, husband, colleague etc.), posing with members of the
public who thus find themselves embroiled in an unforeseen situation. Pierrick Sorin
also uses the front of the Terminus Est Hotel, opposite the station, as a giant screen for
Artiste en bâtiment, a projection of films that he makes "live" by moving small objects
around or setting little "home-made machines" in motion, breathing life into shapes,
materials and colours. Both films are shown to live music by Don Nino (NLF3) and
Rasim Biyikli (Man).
-Video artist Pierrick Sorin is a master at the art of self-portrayal in film and has no qualms
about showing himself on screen. His work plays with different registers to depict everyday life
as both absurd and burlesque. Born in Nantes, where he lives and works, Pierrick Sorin has
achieved international acclaim, with works exhibited in such Meccas of the contemporary
art world as the Fondation Cartier, the Centre Pompidou, the Tate Gallery in London, the
Guggenheim Museum in New York, and the Metropolitan Museum of Photography in Tokyo.

III. SHAAD ALI
Shaad Ali invites the public to take a back-stage tour of the world of Bollywood.
Throughout the night, the public can watch an original scene being filmed in the
middle of the Gare de Lyon, with singing, dancing, costumes, make-up, rhythm and
rhyme, in the glare of the projectors and under the watchful eye of camera-men
and passers-by alike. Music composed by Indian Pyeralal and words by the poet
Gulzar, both masters from the 1950s golden age of Indian popular cinema. Indian
actress Aditi Rao and French actor Louis Garrel take the starring roles. Filming begins
outside on the station forecourt to move indoors at dusk, where it resumes on the
concourse opposite Le Train Bleu restaurant before winding up on the platforms in
the early hours of the morning.
This project has the support of Le Train Bleu restaurant, the French Embassy in India and Hotel
Mama Shelter.
-Shaad Ali is a young Indian Bollywood director. Two of his films, Saathiya (2002) and Bunti aur
Babli (2005) were both box-office hits and critically acclaimed. Ali began learning his craft as
a child on his father’s film sets, and went on to work with Mani Ratnam, one of the great
names in Indian popular cinema of the past thirty years. Shaad Ali’s films are set
uncompromisingly in the India of today, yet they are rooted in the golden age of Indian
popular cinema of the 1950s. Freely mixing comedy, romance and fantasy, Ali’s films tell their
tales at breakneck speed, interspersed with all-singing all-dancing sequences filmed with
remarkable virtuosity. Shaad Ali continues to make his mark as a challenging director who is
determined to see the very special genre of "Bollywood" be given the recognition it deserves.

Screening of Our Century by Artavazd Pelechian (simulation).
A metaphysical meditation on the conquest of space, failed blast-offs, imminent
catastrophes, Icarus’ dream exploited by both Russia and America and the fate of
the astronaut... Our Century, a black and white film made in 1982, is considered a
major work of auteur cinema. For Nuit Blanche, it is being shown on a giant screen
on the motorail loading car park, from where it can be seen from outside the station.
-Artavazd Pelechian was born in Soviet Armenia in 1938 and studied at the VGIK, Moscow’s
film school. In 1967, he made At the Beginning, which he dedicated to the 50th anniversary of
the Russian Revolution. With The Seasons, made in 1972, his fame spread beyond the USSR. His
work, described as visual, universal poetry, has been praised by both Jean-Luc Godard and
Serge Daney and was the subject of a retrospective at the Galerie du Jeu de Paume in 1992.

There’s something strange about the Fiat X1/9 parked in the Bercy car park. In the

questions about life and art in general.
-Born in 1972 and 1973 respectively, Magdalena Kunz and Daniel Glaser live and work in
Zurich. The videos and installation pieces by these two acclaimed video artists have been
widely exhibited all over the world. Spanning sculpture, installation and cinema, their work
frequently depicts scenes from urban life.

Photo: alphons.net. 2008
Previously shown in Amsterdam, spectra consists of a powerful white light whose
beam radically alters architectural and urban spaces. Each version is designed
specifically to suit the scale and features of the site in question. Visible from Place
Saint-Germain-des-Prés, spectra will be combined with the acoustic installation
matrix, the two merging into a single work. Ultra-high intensity projectors are
arranged in squares at the foot of the north wall of the Tour Montparnasse (facing
rue de Rennes). The vertical beam of light is accompanied by a horizontal layer of
pure sound waves. As visitors walk around the exhibit, their movements interfere with
the sound waves, thereby continually creating new pieces of music.
This project has the support of Caisse des Dépôts and Ensemble Immobilier Tour Maine
Montparnasse.
-42-year-old Japanese sound artist Ryoji Ikeda is one of the world’s greatest performers and
composers of electronic music. Focusing on the perception phenomenon and the intrinsic
properties of sound, Ryoji Ikeda uses the very latest technologies to manipulate the most
minute elements possible. An active figure on the Japanese and international scenes since
1995, Ryoji Ikeda’s sound-and-vision performances at concerts have taken his reputation
beyond the music world. He has produced work in collaboration with artists’ collective Dumb
Type, choreographer William Forsythe of the Frankfurt Ballet, architect Toyo Ito and artist
Hiroshi Sugimoto.

Patti Smith draws on the writings of St Francis of Assisi for a musical performance
inside Église Saint-Germain-des-Prés. With her daughter Jesse on piano and her son
Jackson on guitar, this exceptional and poetic work unravels in an improvisational
mode as the night progresses.
-Born in Chicago, Patti Smith was a rebellious teenager with a passion for Rimbaud. In 1967,
she left New Jersey for New York where she met the photographer Robert Mapplethorpe.
Absorbing herself in performance and poetry, she seeks an inspired fusion between
improvisation, politics and rock ’n roll. Her first album, Horses (1975), was internationally
acclaimed, winning the Grand Prix du Disque Charles Cros in France. Her drawings were
shown for the first time in 1978 at the Robert Miller Gallery in New York. In 2005 she received
France’s highest cultural accolade when she was made a Commander of the Order of Arts
and Letters.

© Semiconductor
Gare Saint-Lazare gives a new resonance to the three large-scale video projections
in Semiconductor’s project for Nuit Blanche. Their installation introduces different
physical scales into the station, playing on the limits of perception to stretch the
everyday world far beyond our imagination. The time-lapse animation Brilliant Noise
brings the sun into the station, confronting us with the vastness of an expanding
universe. Earthmoves and The Sound of Microclimates (which shows a futuristic Paris)
remind us that the fabric of our lives is never still as sound and image are used to
dematerialise our environment.
Semiconductor were artists-in-residence at the Centre des Récollets from January to March
2004 as part of the programme developed by the City of Paris – Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
This project has the support of SGGL / INEO MS.
-Semiconductor - the internationally acclaimed duo of UK artists Ruth Jarman and Joe
Gerhardt - make moving image works which reveal our physical world in flux; cities in motion,
shifting landscapes and systems in chaos. Since 1999 they have worked with digital animation
to transcend the constraints of time, scale and natural forces to explore the world beyond
human experience, questioning our very existence.

IX. JOHNNIE TO, Hong Kong Action (simulation).
Johnnie To plunges the public into the heart of Hong-Kong action movies, where a
hail of kung-fu moves, flying leaps and gunfire form an incredible, gravity-defying
choreography. In his work for Nuit Blanche, the musicians and singers of a Cantonese
opera company move across a bamboo theatre stage in front of the Comédie
Française, a tribute to the traditional origins of this unique film genre. An original
montage by Johnnie To is projected on either side of the stage, with classic
Japanese Samurai movies echoing Hollywood Westerns.
This project has the support of the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office, Hotel Mama
Shelter and the SGGL / INEO MS.
-Hong-Kong film director and producer Johnnie To first came to public attention with All About
Ah-long before achieving international acclaim with his 1993 film The Heroic Trio. In 2005,
Election was shown in competition at the Cannes Film Festival. The raw realism of his
detective movies, the choreographed fight scenes and spectacular stunts are all tinged with
black humour.

© Gu Dexin
As night falls, video projections illuminate the four sides of the recently-restored Tour
Saint-Jacques. Shot during daytime, these films show the top part of the tower with
clouds sailing behind it, using time-lapse video to striking effect.
This project has the support of the SGGL / INEO MS.
-Born in 1962 in Beijing where he lives and works, Gu Dexin is one of China’s foremost
contemporary artists. His work is shown in China, Europe and the United States, including at
the Venice Biennial in 2003. He is known for his provocative experimental work that explores
paradox and the absurd, each time adapted to the site where it will be shown.

Courtesy of the artist and Galerie Peter Kilchmann, Zurich (co-producer)
Inspired by an Indian parable, "The Blind Men and the Elephant," and an essay by
Denis Diderot, Letter on the Blind for the Use of Those Who See (2007) is projected on
a giant screen, suspended in the northern transept of Église Saint-Eustache. In this
black and white film, blind people take it in turns to touch an elephant and describe
their impressions. The film, shot in a derelict swimming pool in McCarren Park,
Brooklyn (chosen for its bizarre architecture), reminds us that each individual has a
different perception of the world around them. Javier Téllez’s film is an opportunity to
make the works in Nuit Blanche increasingly accessible. Eight specially-trained
mediators accompany disabled spectators and help them engage with the work.
Visitors can take an explanatory leaflet in standard print, large characters and Braille.
The film’s text is supertitled in French and translated by two French Sign Language
interpreters who are present throughout the night.
Javier Téllez was artist-in-residence at the Centre des Récollets from July to December 2006 as
part of the programme developed by the City of Paris – Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
This project has the support of Voir Ensemble.
-Born in Venezuela in 1969, Javier Téllez lives in New York where he addresses situations of
marginality and how people can be stigmatised because of their difference. His work
questions what is normal and what is pathological. Combining documentary with fictionalised
narrative, Javier Téllez’s work weaves a new fabric in which the actors are given a voice and,
through this, can assert their individuality and human dignity.

(DVD sequence with sound for projection or plasma screen).
Courtesy of Kinz, Tillou + Feigen
Station to Station is a 2001 work composed of five digital and sound animations
which the artist conceived as a group of five distinct paintings, each slowly evolving
and based on the notion of time. A distant evocation of the urban environment with
its underground mass transit systems, the work is shown on five plasma screens, set
out in a semi-circle in front of the choir of the Église Saint-Paul - Saint Louis in a
succession of coloured and moving geometric forms.
Station to Station 1: Robert Moses Terminal gives an abstracted view of a New York
subway station.
Station to Station 2: Fordham Gneiss depicts the movement of a train as it leaves the
city.
Station to Station 3: Carbon Sink Park represents a suburban station.
Station to Station 4: Slumber Line depicts the movement of a train as it enters the city.
Station to Station 5: Indiglo Heights shows another urban station.
-Born in Oklahoma in 1971, Jeremy Blake was an internationally-renowned artist whose brilliant
career was cut short when he committed suicide at the age of 36. He developed an early
interest in digital technology and was one of the first artists to experiment with pixelisation and
the possibilities opened up by digital imagery to develop a resolutely pictorial work. Whether
still or animated, his images combine the figurative and the abstract, seduction and
provocation, mysticism and popular culture.

INSTALLATION
This work is dedicated to those who in their imagination
or by some other means have gone through a wall or
only intend to do so. The wall in this work is made of light,
which from the aspect of physics is made of photons,
which have a dual nature - they are simultaneously both
a wave and a particle. Can you imagine this? And what
kind of thinking method will you adopt: the rationally
logical or the irrationally intuitive, imaginative? Good luck!

NUITS BLANCHES AROUND THE WORLD
Many capital cities around the world have taken inspiration from Nuit Blanche or
have used the Paris night as a model for their own event. From Madrid to Miami,
from Montreal to Bucharest, the number of cities embarking on this dusk-to-dawn
adventure continues to grow.
By means of example, since 2005 and coinciding with Nuit Blanche in Paris, the
French Consulate General in Palestine works with local artists and cultural
organisations to stage a Nuit Blanche in the gardens and gallery of the French
Cultural Centre in Gaza.
Since 2006, this event has included an artistic project sent by the City of Paris.
Inspired by the success of the Gaza Nuit Blanche, this year the operation has spread
to five cities as the different French Cultural Centres in Palestine have expressed their
wish to host a Parisian project in their walls.
Acting as a specialist consultant, the director of the Maison Européenne de la
Photographie in Paris recommended the video installations of the contemporary
Parisian artist Laurent Grasso who, after studying the project, suggested installing
multiple works across the region. Hence video creations will be installed in historical
and modern settings in Bethlehem (Peace Center), Ramallah (Almahatta Gallery),
Nablus, Gaza (French Culture Centres) and East Jerusalem (Al Hosh Gallery). Each
work is chosen specifically for the site. An additional work will be shown in the Bible
School in West Jerusalem.
The works selected by the artist for this Retrospective dans les Territoires Palestiniens
are:
Polair in which a cloud of pollen invades Berlin;
Projection in which a cloud of smoke rolls through the streets of Paris;
Eclipse depicting a phoney eclipse, an attempt at faking a miracle;
Tout est possible which shows a man strolling through the streets of Casablanca while
imagining how the CIA can work with ghosts.
1619 which depicts fake Northern Lights in reference to the HAARP military project
that uses Northern Lights for experimental purposes.
None of these imaginary, yet sometimes plausible, phenomena are meant to
propose a solution; instead they describe the difficulties of representation in an ever
more complex society.
Another guest artist, Marie-Ange Guilleminot, proposes Fold, October 31st, 1999, a
video shot from two viewpoints (from the side and from above). The film was made
with students when Marie-Ange Guilleminot was artist-in-residence at the San
Francisco Art Institute in 1999 and features the first appearance of L’Oursin. An
51
improvisation lasting one hour and fifty minutes, it will be screened in the gardens of
the French Cultural Centre in Gaza.
L’Oursin is a polymorphous sculpture-object in polyethylene, created by the artist in
1997 and intended to be worn as a cape to protect its users. Made in cooperation
with the Fabric Workshop and Museum in Philadelphia, the first four sea urchins (Ø
4m) were covered with pearly white paint in which the fold lines of the urchin in its
metamorphosis into a flower are ingrained. There are now four versions of L’oursin of
various sizes. As well as a functional purpose, it has a symbolic value that is
particularly strong in connection to Hiroshima.
Other events: the projection of the videos Hospitalités 2 by the network TRAM,
installations of local artists on the topic of the Suitcase, and the projection of pieces
that ran the film Pocket contest set up in collaboration with le Forum des Images.
Biography of Laurent Grasso
Whether he (re)activates the more or less identifiable forms of a society "under control" or
hijacks the conventions and techniques of cinema that shape the collective imagination,
Laurent Grasso creates environments with a strong narrative potential; a combination of
ancestral fears, scientific accounts and urban legends. He draws on light, sound, radio and
electromagnetic waves, natural, paranormal and meteorological phenomena to conjure up
unique sensorial experiences. They in turn become the vectors for fictions which the
spectator must then complete. Through the tension he creates between the works, their
environment and the sometimes dramatic projection, Laurent Grasso provokes startling
mental images that blur the vision of what we commonly refer to as "reality.

NUITS BLANCHES IN EUROPE
Eager to share their experience as organisers of a Nuit Blanche, but also with the aim of promoting
enriching artistic exchanges, several European capitals have joined together to form the Nuits
Blanches Europe network. The original movement, launched in 2006, comprised five capitals:
Brussels, Madrid, Paris, Riga and Rome. Each of these cities welcomed an artist or company from
one of the other capitals in the network. In 2007 the network welcomed Bucharest. The now six
capitals (Brussels, Bucharest, Madrid, Paris, Riga and Rome) decided to stage a joint artistic project
in which designers imagined a lounge area that would appear at Nuits Blanches in each of the
participating cities. Valletta joined the network in 2008. This year, the cities in the network will
exchange projects developed for previous Nuits Blanches. They will also launch a joint website,
the work of the artist Miltos Manetas (See p.55).

Imagine you could write a message to a tree somewhere in your city. Imagine your
message was sent to another city. Imagine you received a reply…
As part of the artistic exchanges between the six capital cities in the Nuits Blanches
Europe network, the artist Miltos Manetas has been commissioned to design a
shared, interactive digital work, which members of the public from the six cities can
view online. He has called his work Ching-I.com in reference to I-Ching, the ancient
Chinese book of oracles. Any European citizen can post a message in a ball that
falls from the oracle-tree. The oracle-tree will then reply by passing on a message
posted elsewhere in Europe.

Biography of Miltos Manetas
Born in Athens in 1964, at the age of 20 Miltos Manetas became a student at the Academia
di Brera in Milan. He began his career with photo and video works before turning to figurative
painting. Since the mid-1990s, Miltos Manetas’ figurative oil-on-canvas paintings have made
clear his fascination with the technology of our modern age: laptops, consoles, video-game
characters, cables and joysticks become the icons that inhabit familiar, contemporary
interiors. Attentive to new technologies, cognitive sciences and new means of
communication, Miltos Manetas' art includes the writing of manifestos in celebration of
cyberspace, file names, pixels, software and virtual communities.
