Draw me a Flag, 2018
A Beautiful Elsewhere
Organized by Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain
Power Station of Art, Shanghai, China
25 April to 29 July 2018

Based on an idea by Christian Boltanski, the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain has launched a project designed for the spectacular fifth-floor terrace of the museum. The installation consists of around eighty flags designed by artists, scientists, philosophers, and friends of the Fondation Cartier, who have contributed to its program over the years, and today from a strong community.
