Le Pavillon noir, Aix-en-Provence France

Rudy Ricciotti designed the “Black Flag” theatre in Provence, France in 2006. Winner of the Grand National Prize for Architecture, Ricciotti’s design has been described by Angelin Preljocaj as “a frame of iron and concrete dressing a skin of glass.”The cube contains contemporary dance which is reflected in the exciting structure, exposed structure with glazing inside. Parts of the cube stand open to the outside.
