Paris outdoors

No need to head for a museum to enjoy art. Paris has works like the Buren Columns or the Stravinsky fountain fitting into the urban environment for everyone to enjoy. Yet the street is also a place of expression for “clandestine” artists to express themselves; seek them out along the Canal Saint-Martin or in Montmartre, where the pavements are galleries.
