Perrotin Gallery Is Hiding Free Artwork by Takashi Murakami in Paris Scavenger Hunt
Work by Daniel Arsham, JR and more also up for grabs.
Putting a high-stakes twist on a traditional scavenger hunt, Perrotin Gallery is hiding valued works by Takashi Murakami, Daniel Arsham and more throughout the Grand Palais in Paris.
Perrotin announced the art treasure hunt, dubbed “WANTED!”, on its Instagram account, specifying rules for participation: “20 artworks by Perrotin artists will be concealed in the empty nave of the Grand Palais. If you find one, you leave with it,” a succinct caption reads. Participants will have a shot at securing a range of works including Murakami’s “Flowerball Blood 3D” lithograph, Arsham’s “Quartz Eroded Bust of Diane the Hunter (Named Diane of Versailles)” and Emily Mae Smith’s “Chekhov’s Gun” silkscreen. Additional participating artists include JR, Gregor Hildebrandt and Genesis Belanger.
Unfortunately, registration for WANTED! has closed. Head to the Perrotin website to learn more about the free art scavenger hunt.
