Création, pierre vive du patrimoine, a book by Hubert Besacier
The work undertaken by Georges Verney-Carron is now brought together in this book, reflecting his taste for perfection and the pleasure of communicating his desires, which has always been his way of contributing to the beauty of the city and the comfort of its inhabitants. (Bilingual Fr/Ang).
The paths of George Vernay-Caron and Cédric Brochier would cross on numerous occasions, including Guy de Rougemont’s banni!ères and Daniel Buren’s exhibition of luminous canvases.
“Right from the start in 1980, I felt it was essential to open up our living environment, the city, by combining architecture, art and design in the most natural, enjoyable, artistic and aesthetic way possible. To achieve this, we brought together architects, artists and designers, welcoming their thoughts and creations with pleasure and relish. In this way, we’ve been able to establish a most fruitful, amiable dialogue between their talents, the cities and their citizens.” G.Verney-Carron.

Whether it’s the parking garages designed by Wilmotte Associés and Daniel Buren, François Morellet, Pierre Vurpas, Wilmotte interior architecture; Marin kasimir, Wilmotte Associés, Michel Verjux and Gérôme Thomas… Or Vincent Leroy‘s tramway, but also in situ works by Felice Varini, Philippe Cazal, Gérard Collin-Thiébaut, Cécile Bart, Spencer Tunick….
Numerous sites and cities have thus benefited from an added aesthetic value, sometimes humorous, but also meaningful and, finally, more urban.
