A Collaboration with Centre Pompidou-Metz
This event marks the very first collaboration between Galeries Lafayette Paris Haussmann and Centre Pompidou-Metz. The project creates an unprecedented dialogue between the museum institution and the iconic department store, affirming that art truly belongs in the spaces of everyday life. Here, art meets a crowd that wasn’t necessarily looking for it—and it is precisely there that a new adventure begins, awakening different layers of memory and new desires.
The POUR TOUJOURS project is an “extramural” (off-site) extension of the exhibition Dimanche sans fin. Maurizio Cattelan and the Centre Pompidou Collection presented in Metz. It transposes a selection of works to Paris, reinventing them through contact with a venue frequented by visitors from all over the world.

An Artistic Journey in 4 Highlights
Curated by artist Maurizio Cattelan and Chiara Parisi, Director of Centre Pompidou-Metz, the journey comes to life within the most emblematic locations of the Haussmann store through the works of four major artists:
- Gloria Friedmann: The installation MAMMALIA features a “Mother Earth” sculpted from clay, surrounded by a constellation of animals (deer, wolf, bear) evoking the fragility of life.
- Birgit Jürgenssen: Iconic photographs by this figure of the feminist avant-garde are presented in the wall display cases, ironically subverting the social and domestic roles assigned to women.
- Christodoulos Panayiotou: The sound piece Judy Garland: A Biography superimposes the first and last performances of “Over the Rainbow,” creating a poetic and tragic echo within this transitional space.
- Lawrence Weiner: The bilingual statement AU MÊME MOMENT / AT THE SAME MOMENT plays with the perception of time and emphasizes the importance of language as a sculptural medium.
