THE RUCHE
At the origin "Wine Rotunda" of the 1900 Universal exposition, the building owes its name to its polygon form, which evokes a hive. In 1902, the sculptor Alfred Boucher made a kind of artist's home, freshly landed in Paris: Light, Ossip, Artists, Chagall and many others put their brushes in one of the 140 workshops. According to legend, Boucher called them his "bees", hence the nickname of ruche. Classified as a historic monument, the Ruche was rehabilitated and its workshops expanded. Today, it welcomes 60 French and foreigners. Occasionally open to the public.
