  • The Opéra de la Bastille, which was developed for new creative concepts and technical innovation, as opposed to the illusionistic bourgeois theater epitomized by the layers of trompe l’oeil painted backcloths of the Opéra Garnier and earlier theaters. Designed by Canadian-Uruguayan architect Carlos Ott, it is one of the Grands Projets masterminded by François Mitterrand to symbolize France’s central role in art, politics, and the world economy.
