“Pollarêves”? Lovers of the singer exiled in the United States will have noted the reference: the title is clearly inspired by « Polnarêve », in the singular then, an instrumental piece from 1974. « Polnarêves » should mix several concepts. A hybrid concept between exhibition and live music. But with Polnareff sauce, that is to say unique and avant-garde.
This exhibition should immerse the visitor in more than 50 years of an extraordinary musical journey, from « Love Me, Please Love Me » in 1966 to his tenth studio album, » At last ! “, released at the end of 2018. It was then his first opus for almost thirty years. In this context, the singer and his music records, Universal, have planned to unveil 100% unpublished images and documents from their archives. The Palace, which has already hosted an exhibition on David Bowie in 2021, had planned to host the event for a quarter. “Polnarêves” should then go on tour.
