Espace Frans Krajcberg

The Espace Frans Krajcberg occupies a corner of the Marché Raspail, marked by massive, charred tree trunks that rise toward the ceiling like skeletal fingers. Frans Krajcberg, a sculptor who fled the Holocaust in Poland, dedicated his life to the Amazon rainforest. He spent decades gathering wood blackened by illegal forest fires and assembling these towering, fragile forms to bear witness to the destruction. He stored his life’s work here, insisting that art serves as a cry for the living earth.
