Jean Prouvé’s 6×9 demountable house at Art Basel Paris – Set-up



As part of the Art Basel Paris public program,GALERIE PATRICK SEGUIN is showing a JEAN PROUVÉ 6×9 demountable house on Avenue Winston Churchill, in front of the Grand Palais.

This stop-motion video, filmed during the two-day assembly of the house in the heart of Paris, highlights the fascinating construction process of this demountable architecture, designed in 1944 to be rapidly assembled and, if needed, demounted and moved elsewhere.

Free of charge and open to all, a visit to the 6×9 demountable house is an opportunity to observe the ingenuity of Prouvé’s construction system, deployed here using two portal frames around which the living spaces inside the pavilion are organized.

The 54m2 demountable house is furnished with a fine selection of Jean Prouvé furniture.
