Nel 1981, solo pochi mesi dopo la sua nomina a presidente della Repubblica Francese, François Mitterand propose di rinnovare e rendere più funzionali le strutture museali del Louvre. Il progetto venne affidato all'architetto sino-americano Ieoh Ming Pei e incontrò da subito numerose difficoltà. La prima fu rappresentata dalla necessità di spostare il Ministero delle Finanze, che aveva sede nell'ala Richelieu, per poter consacrare definitivamente e completamente l'antico palazzo reale a museo. La riluttanza al trasferimento a Bercy, da parte del ministro, creò un po' di tensione in ambito politico ma i suoi tentativi di opposizione furono vani…ormai il progetto aveva preso il volo. Così, venti anni di lavoro e un investimento di un miliardo di euro, hanno migliorato la presentazione delle opere e hanno dato vita ad una città sotterranea che, con biglietteria, luoghi di ristoro e boutique di vario genere, è oggi il corollario adeguato ad uno dei più grandi e visitati musei del mondo. Come accesso alla Ville Louvre, Pei ideò una monumentale piramide di vetro. Naturalmente la creazione di quest'opera tanto imponente e moderna nella vecchia Cour Napoléon diede adito a non poche critiche che definirono il progetto un “Grande Errore”, osteggiando “La geometria glaciale” della Piramide e temendo che queste nuove costruzioni potessero degenerare in una sorta di Disneyland parigina ? in un'epoca in cui, tra l'altro, il parco dei divertimenti di Marne la Vallée non esisteva ancora. Ma come già era successo un secolo prima con la Tour Eiffel, nonostante le critiche aspre, il monumento ha riscosso, sin dall'inaugurazione nel 1989, un gran successo! Commenti e critiche sempre molto graditi. Grazie.
