Description
Residents of the La Chapelle district in northern Paris react to ten golden statues of illustrious women, unveiled during the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. The statues — which include figures such as rights activist Gisèle Halimi and philosopher Simone de Beauvoir — have been installed in this working-class neighborhood as “an act of heritage as well as an act of homage,” according to Michèle Zaoui, an architect at the General Secretariat of the City of Paris.
