“Enjoy a positive mental attitude in a time faced with darkness.”

David Malek wrote that. He’s an American artist, whose work is now on display in Paris, at the southwestern corner of the place de la Madeleine.

Malek’s work isn’t in a gallery; it’s outdoors, where it camouflages a construction site.

The Cerruti boutique is renovating the premises, and chose Malek’s work to cover up what’s going on indoors.

For this moment of art in the heart of the city: thank you Cerruti, and thank you David Malek.
