The sculpture Alfred Boucher launched LA Ruche (literally the beehive) in 1900. Situated at no. 2 Passage Dantzig, this artists’ residence today hosts some fifty or so artists who work there. Famous artist residents include Fernand Léger, Chaïm Soutine, Zadkine, Marc Chagall and Blaise Cendrars. The building’s facades and roofs are listed as historical monuments and some of its architectural elements date back to the 1900 World Fair. It is primarily used as a workplace and may only be visited on the occasion of special events.
