Folie

"The bright red folies were meant as "activators of space", rather than sculptural objects. They became a sign for La Vallette. Much in a way that Giles Gilbert Scott's red telephone epitomized London, or Hector Guimard's Art Nouveau Metro stations provide a leitmotif for the city of Paris."

(Bure, 2008)
