GRID reveals the architecture of the building designed by Christian de Portzamparc. GRID is a structure composed of 50 triangles consisting of motorized bars with 150 Leds, hanging to form a massive dynamic grid of 22m long.

Located at the heart of the Hotel de Region in Lyon-France, GRID combines light and movement based on the 45 singers of Concert de l’Hostel Dieu and Robert Henke’s electronic notes.

Forming straight lines, diagonals and diamonds, GRID comes alive to the rhythm of contemporary sound of two bands :

• Concert de l’Hostel Dieu whose choir will perform the Johann Sebastian Bach’s Immortal, arranged by Knut Nystedt and directed by Franck-Emmanuel Comte,
• German artist Robert Henke, known since the 90s in the international electronic music scene and founder of Monolake.

Designed by the designer Christopher Bauder of Whitevoid, GRID will be shown from the 6th to the 9th of December starting at 6 pm.
