This morning, we walked out the hotel, and turned left, and voila there we were almost on top of the Centre Pompidou.
It is a modern building built with all the function parts on the outside (i.e., the escalator, the heating ducts, pipes), leaving lots of room inside to display modern art.
We rode the external escalator up to the 6th floor, and worked our way down, but most of the great modern art was on the 5th floor. We saw many paintings by many great artists including Picasso, Braque, Chagall, Matisse, Kandinsky and Klee.
Here is a sample of the art.

Today's odd encounter was a digerdoo player on the sidewalk outside Pompidou.
