Terroir/Territory: Memory, Identity, and Land through Visual Storytelling Join French-American journalist and author, Lindsey Tramuta in an intimate conversation with Armenian-Lebanese-French photojournalist and filmmaker, Astrig Agopian, for the Paris launch of Agopian's multimedia exhibition, Like There's No Tomorrow. Like There's No Tomorrow is the culmination of a three-year documentary photography project capturing the stories of ethnic Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh, where soil and land become both symbols of resilience and repositories of memory amidst conflict. What we see through this body of work is a deep exploration of cultural identity, displacement, and memory within the context of a region that no longer exists and begs the questions of what anchors us when borders shift or we are forced to leave; and how can we protect the cultural roots that connect us to our histories and ways of life? As a way to connect us to the land that over 114,000 ethnic Armenian refugees hold on to as memory, we will be guided through a sensory experience tasting wines from the region. In terroir studies, soil is seen not only as a physical medium but as a vessel for memory, containing layers of meaning that trace back to past generations and cultural practices. This parallel illuminates how land and territory carry deep, enduring significance, acting as conduits for preserving culture and history in times of displacement. Just as terroir grants wine regions their unique story and sense of place, Like There’s No Tomorrow reflects the symbolic power of soil and landscape in the lives of displaced Armenians, using these natural elements to sustain cultural identity amidst upheaval. This event is organized and sponsored by ART WORKS Projects in partnership with PARAMAZ Atelier. In addition to the guided wine tasting, additional refreshments and light appetizers will be available for all guests. EXHIBITION HOURS Like There's No Tomorrow will be on view daily at PARAMAZ Atelier starting 3 - 9 March from 12:00 - 18:00. Please email info@artworksprojects.org if you would like to arrange a special tour and guided visit.

ART WORKS Projects’ (AWP) mission is to use design and the arts to raise awareness of and educate the public about significant human rights issues. With offices in Chicago and The Hague, AWP provides visual advocacy tools which produce action on human rights crises at the grassroots, media, and policy levels. Conceptualized and created in conjunction with established documentary photographers, NGO's and human rights advocates, AWP's multimedia exhibitions, archives, films, and visual toolkits provide opportunities for large numbers of the general population to engage in ending major human rights violations. All proceeds from this event will go directly towards the continued advancement of Astrig's project through the Emerging Lens Fellowship program. Visit: www.artworksprojects.org to learn more.

Great option for fixed time entry into Eiffel Tower, especially if you can&rsquo;t get tickets directly with Eiffel Tower. Marie Rosa was our guide today and she is absolutely lovely, very friendly and helpful to bring us up to Eiffel Tower.

Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris

学校🏫

Notre Dame: is the stone epic reborn by the fire worth kneeling and looking up? Conclusion: Even if the scaffolding is not removed, she is still the soul coordinates of Paris! The fire burned through the Gothic dome, but it made humanity see the faith more nakedthe Notre Dame cathedral at the moment is a living architectural anatomy lesson, more philosophical than perfect. Beyond the hard core truth of &quot;The Bell Tower Strange Man&quot;: The shocking aesthetic of the scaffolding church: The giant tower on the south side is hanging like a mechanical cross to the sky, and the unfinished flying support wall is exposed with steel nerves. Through the construction barrier gap, it can be seen that the new spire of 600 tons of lead recovered after the disaster is a Gothic soul that was resurrected by human technology in the 21st century. Survivor&#39;s miracle code: bronze rooster weather vane (falling in the fire and recovered): inside the body is sealed with Paris, thorn crown fragments and Saint Danny&#39;s remains, the French regard it as a totem of the country&#39;s immortality; South Rose Window (16th century): The colored glass made by the high temperature in the fire is more bright. When the noon sun penetrates, the ground will appear a blood diamond-like rose projection; the North ear hall stone pillar: the black pillar is deliberately retained, and the snow-white repair stone is placed together. Time capsule in the palace: The underground archaeological tomb (Crypte Arch&eacute;ologique) contains the ruins of the ancient Roman bathing beach in Xiqiao, the stone pool in the 4th century AD staggered with the foundations of the medieval Notre Dame, and the 2,000-year-old layer of Paris was cut open here. The ghosts echoed by the river Pont Neuf squatted late into the night, when the construction lights went out and the outlines of the building floated in the moonlight. At this time, the ears were attached to the wall and the wind could hear the whimpering wind through the scaffolding holethe illusion of Casimodo&rsquo;s bell ringing. Guide to survival of the pilgrimage after the disaster: Zero distance touch rebirth: - make an appointment for &quot;Reconstruction Tour&quot; (Chantier Tour, &euro;19) wear a helmet to enter the construction site to see the robot carving new beam wood; - Next door Rebirth Workshop (Atelier de la Reconstruction) hand-assembled the oak dome model and touched the original wood beam sample that was charred. Magic moment sniping: - 1 hour before sunset, squatting the Pont Petit, construction tower crane and the remaining twin towers in the reflection of the Seine River constitute a surreal picture; - Looking up at the North Tower on the whole point, when the temporary clock group was newly cast in 2023, the pigeons were shocked like ashes flying backwards. Soul meal plan: - Sai Church of the Holy Spirit (Sai)
