Afin que tous soient UN
Théophile Stern
Saint-Eustache church, Paris
2016
Between 2016 and 2020 , Rubis Mécénat collaborated with the Beaux-Arts de Paris on a call for projects aimed at the school’s students, to create a contemporary crib for the Saint-Eustache church.
The 2016 winner, Théophile Stern, conceived the installation ‘Afin que tous soient UN’ (So that we may all be ONE), exhibited at the church from December 2016 to January 2017.
It represents a vertical unfinished boat pulled from the water by a dove at the bow and in which oat portraits of men, women and children from today who live in France, some of whom are refugees recently established in Paris.
