Paris Culture Datavisualization

Hello Dribbblers !

Here a work I've done few years ago for "Science du Design" Magazine.

Paris belongs to those elusive cities that, despite years of exploration, always hide an unknown treasure at the corner of a street. Everyone knows the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum and rarely goes to Paris without having visited the Impressionist Gallery of the Musée d'Orsay. But is it the representative of Parisian culture?

Through this work of data-visualization, our intention is to open a reflection on different cultures. On the one hand, we easily showed the culture quantified, qualified, monitored and controlled. The culture present in databases and in tourist guides. Labeled and financed culture. Often widely recognized, but sometimes forgotten, we have identified it as "classical" by its antiquity and its historical dimension. On the other hand, we tried to bring out the culture ignored by tourists and statisticians. Culture unlisted, ephemeral and moving. Much more difficult to explore, much more risky to expose, we have decreed "alternative".
In the desire to observe artistic production as close as possible to the Parisian pavement, we have compared the very classic monuments to the more alternative Street Art, highlighting the excessiveness between the rarity of these imposing architectures and the smallness of these wild interventions practiced. (almost) everywhere in Paris
