Here is a cool sculpture that I found in front of the Institut du monde arabe (the Arab World Institute) . It's called "Trio Elephants" and it was made by Nadim Karam, a Lebanese artist who was born in Senegal. He has this "thing" for elephants and likes to sculpt them in bronze, wood, metal... Anyway, on top of the sculpture, I really love this place which is like heaven for photographers ;-)
