1,250 people gathered in Rouen, France, on June 8 to kick off the 2010 Normandy Impressionist Festival by making a giant reproduction of one of Monet’s “Rouen Cathedral at the End of the Day (Sunlight Effect)” (1894).
The group assembled the 600-square-meter (that’s almost 6,500 square feet) replica by lifting panels over their heads. The large piece was named “Monet Vu du Ciel” (Monet Seen From the Sky). The image (above) was taken from 90 feet above Rouen’s city hall.
Watch the video below to see how the piece was not only a large re-creation, but also a performance.
