Loic Froissart, the author of Ma cabane and other albums for young people, spent many hours in the heart of the Center Pompidou to familiarize himself with all these tubes and pipes and to find his way around this huge liner.
Like a guided tour, the reader is invited to explore the thousands of square meters of the building; after being captivated by the many activities of the Forum, he takes the famous escalator, the caterpillar, which zig-zags along the facade and serves each floor. He then discovered the exhibition spaces and the museum with their squared rooms, then moved to the Bpi to read and rest. And over the pages, the reader gradually apprehends the astonishing colored structure, its different functions and all its actors.
Behind the futuristic decor, behind the scenes of a large museum to understand what is behind the famous construction which is in the headlines and which caused a scandal at the end of the 70s.
