Taking History to the Bank

 

Proposal for Ile de la Cite Make-over Expo Paris 2017      (nanturpin photograph)

Thousand-year old Paris applies glass to the past; transparency to its medieval functions; new money to old power.  Can they accustom us to their program? Are old certainties – good and evil – goners?  Who’s louder us or money? How will we know?  Are slick expos the answer?

Contemplation past and future
