Listed as a Historic Monument since 1983, the Villa André Bloc is the work of the artist and publisher André Bloc, who remained famous for his magazine "L'Architecture d'Aujourd'hui".
Built in 1951, this residence "house-workshop" is characteristic of the modern movement. Defending the idea of a synthesis of the arts between sculpture and architecture, André Bloc realized from 1960 to 1964 a monumental "interior sculpture" named "Cabin II", in bricks painted with lime, as well as a natural red brick tower that offers a panoramic view of Paris.
In order to preserve the creative spirit that animates Villa Bloc, Natalie Seroussi has Bloc’s interior sculptures interact with contemporary creation every year, inviting an artist to create an in situ installation.
Since 2008, the public has been able to discover the proposals of Ernesto Neto, Malachi Farrell, Michel François, Mathieu Briand, Michel François, Tobias Putrith, Phil Niblock, Didier Faustino, Bruno Gironcoli and Anita Molinero.

About the location

Villa André Bloc
12 rue du Bel-Air 92190 Meudon
  • Hauts-de-Seine
  • Île-de-France
A striking example of 1950s architecture in terms of its shape and the materials used (iron, glass and concrete). In the garden stand two brick sculptures, monumental interiors built in 1964 that represent the quest by their creator for a possible synthesis of sculpture and architecture.
