The Pont Neuf is a 419 year-old bridge, the oldest in #Paris - and now a temporary #mountain cave. Parisian #artist #JR unveiled his new public work on May 21. It will be fully accessible for three weeks starting June 6, with visitors able to discover the work's soundtrack provided by an ex-member of #DaftPunk.
