Bassins des Lumières: Sound & Light Show

The Iconic Works of Frida Kahlo and Henri Matisse Immerse yourself in a multimedia art installation that features the work of two prominent 20th-century artists. During World War II, Bordeaux was occupied by German troops and was the site of a Nazi submarine base that was active for just over a year. Today, the space has been transformed into the largest digital art center in the world. Drive to the Bassins des Lumières, where you will watch as some of the most recognized works in the world of art are brought to life via projections and animations. See Frida Kahlo’s deeply personal and emotive work dance across the walls and reflect off the water, offering a new perspective into some of her most iconic pieces. Then, observe the vibrant colors and bold forms of Henri Matisse as they take over the hall, watching his artistic journey unfold through his early impressionism, his stylized masterpieces and Fauvist work. * Easy - Walking portions are generally over easy surfaces with few steps or inclines.
