What are the exhibits of the Louvre besides the Mona Lisa for granted got to live the star couple?

In the video beyoncé and Jay-Z, filmed for the song "Apeshit" — capital for their new joint album, "Everything is Love", a couple dancing and singing on the background of the exhibits of the Paris Louvre. The fact that the Museum, in principle, allowed filming in its halls, — is not news. If you believe Twitter-аккаунту the Louvre, the Museum is removed to 500 projects annually, and prices may reach up to 15 thousand euros for the survey in periods of peak demand. Impressed fans of Carter (generic name Beyonce and Jay-Z married since 2008) other: the promise that lies in this song and the clip.

celebrity couple sings about how success was achieved: to fly on airplanes, as President, drives a Lamborghini, buying diamonds and luxury homes, etc., etc. and it's all thanks to the love of the fans in the crowd which they dive from the stage: "I can't believe that we made and that we are grateful for that". Carters on top of the world — and they are no worse than the characters in the paintings and sculptures of the Louvre. What is important — predominantly white characters. It is a temple art white, but Beyonce and Jay-Зи become its integral part.

Beyonce, dressed in a splendid white garment, rapping at the feet of the goddess of victory Nike of Samothrace. Or dancing in the background of almost ten-paintings of Jacques-Луи David "Coronation of Napoleon" (1805-1808). The figure of Beyonce is exactly under the image koronuemoy Empress Josephine, with whom the singer identifies himself with. Theme for Jay-Z be paintings by théodore géricault "the Raft of the Medusa" and "the Officer mounted Rangers of the Imperial guard, going on the attack". From the second frame with the image of that officer on a rearing white horse is followed by a frame with a black dancer (and even by Carter), standing astride a black horse.

In another moment the shot misses the painting of Paolo Veronese's "Marriage at Cana" (1562-1563). The painting reflects the contemporary artists and the world of wealth and luxury. And at this feast, blacks subservient to whites. Their shape in the clip Housings are shown as separate plans. After a century of luxury and glamour all the same, only now, Beyonce and Jay-Зи — full participants in such feasts.

the clip Ends, which is to be expected for the video, filmed in the Louvre, on the background of the "Mona Lisa". Almost the entire clip stood by Gioconda back wife Carter turned to the work of Leonardo's face. They pay tribute to the masterpieces of the past. The theme of gratitude is one of the most important in the song and video. And the Louvre sanctioned shooting just so. "The timing was very tight, but the management of the Louvre quickly went forward, because the plot reflected the deep attachment to our Museum and loved his work", — said in a press-службе of the Louvre.
