https://www.multivu.com/four-seasons-hotel-george-v-paris/9354451-en-reveals-243-newly-renovated-rooms-and-suites 

The newly refurbished spaces feature the largest guestroom layouts of any hotel in Paris, with personal workspaces, curated libraries and private dining rooms. Every detail has been carefully designed in a harmonious blend of classic Louis XVI-style furniture and contemporary artworks. The integration of discreet, intuitive technologies ensures guests feel both fully connected and completely at home.

Through a palette of soft, harmonious tones, the interiors have been reimagined with refined lines and expanded perspectives. Natural light is enhanced throughout the property, while new French windows frame breathtaking views of Paris. Select suites now offer panoramas of the Eiffel Tower, with daylight flooding into the rooms to create an atmosphere of serenity.

Located on the top floor, the Penthouse Suite – the hotel’s most iconic suite, has been redesigned to let in natural light, retaining its essence as a luxurious and serene refuge away from the hustle and bustle of Paris. The views from the salons are nothing short of spectacular, with the Eiffel Tower becoming the focal point of the space: a living masterpiece, visible at every hour.

GENESIS CELEBRATES THE OPENING OF THE GENESIS FACADE COMMISSION: JEFFREY GIBSON, THE ANIMAL THAT THEREFORE I AM AT THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART

  • The second Genesis Facade Commission, a multi-year partnership between Genesis and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, to be on view through June 9, 2026
  • The exhibition presents four new site-specific works by interdisciplinary artist Jeffrey Gibson
  • Genesis Art Initiatives continues to deepen its collaboration with institutions and visionaries with an understanding of contemporary challenges and timeless values

SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Genesis today shared that as part of the multi-year partnership with The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Genesis Facade Commission: Jeffrey Gibson, The Animal That Therefore I Am, will be on view at the Museum’s Fifth Avenue facade through June 9, 2026.

Initiated in 2024, The Genesis Facade Commission is an annual exhibition that builds upon the Museum’s contemporary art commissions on the Fifth Avenue facade since 2019. An artist is invited each year to create new site-specific works of art, inspiring authentic engagement between the artist, The Met’s audience, and the broader global art world.

Following last year’s exhibition by renowned contemporary artist Lee Bul, Jeffrey Gibson, who represented the United States Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale, presents four new bronze sculptures, which combines his cultural worldview with abstraction, patterning, materiality, and text this year.

This is his first major use of bronze at a monumental scale, each approximately three meters tall, expanding beyond material used in his earlier works. Cast elements such as wood, beads, and cloth are incorporated to create texture, forming animal figures that bring together the animate and the inanimate. The four works depict a deer, a coyote, a squirrel, and a hawk — species native both to the Hudson Valley, where Gibson’s studio is located, and to Central Park, home to The Met.

The subtitle, The Animal That Therefore I Am, is taken from the 2002 book by French philosopher Jacques Derrida and reflects on the interconnectedness of all living beings and the environment. By referencing Derrida’s text, the works highlight how animals have been forced to adapt to human environments, inviting us to consider what they endure and what they might teach us, while remaining in dialogue with both the Hudson River Valley landscape and the urban ecology of Central Park.

Gibson, a member of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians and of Cherokee descent, is widely recognized as a leading figure in contemporary Indigenous art and culture. Having grown up in the United States, Germany, and Korea, Gibson draws upon his diverse cultural identity to create interdisciplinary works spanning painting, performance, video, and curatorial practice. His art explores themes of human relationship and collective identity, often incorporating Indigenous aesthetics and traditional materials to propose new modes of abstraction, text, and color. Installed at the Museum’s main entrance, the sculptures are covered with patinated abstract patterns that evoke beadwork and textiles, integrating motifs from Indigenous visual traditions into the bronze surfaces.

“The second exhibition of The Genesis Facade Commission invites the audience to engage with the enhanced relationships between living beings, nature, and urban surroundings as envisioned by Jeffrey Gibson,” said DooEun Choi, Art Director of Hyundai Motor. “The newly commissioned artworks continue to inspire dialogues on cultural diversity and the value of coexistence that the artist has been exploring.”

Jeffrey Gibson is one of the most remarkable artists of his generation and a pioneering figure within the field of native and Indigenous art,” said Max Hollein, The Met’s Marina Kellen French Director and Chief Executive Officer. “These new works are based on his signature use of unconventional materials and reimagined forms, employing them to explore often – overlooked histories and the natural world. We’re thrilled to have his monumental sculptures installed on The Met’s iconic Fifth Avenue facade through the second Genesis Facade Commission.”

In celebration of the opening, an artist talk titled An Evening with Jeffrey Gibson will be held on September 15, offering an in-depth discussion of the artist’s creative journey and the new commission.

Genesis Art Initiatives continues to expand its collaboration with leading institutions and visionary artists to inspire profound cultural dialogues with the wider world, including The Genesis Exhibition: Do Ho Suh: Walk the House at Tate Modern, which will run through October.

WiMi Lays Out Scalable Quantum Convolutional Neural Network to Enhance Image Classification Accuracy and Efficiency

BEIJING, Sept. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — WiMi Hologram Cloud Inc. (NASDAQ: WiMi) (“WiMi” or the “Company”), a leading global Hologram Augmented Reality (“AR”) Technology provider, today announced that they are actively exploring Scalable Quantum Convolutional Neural Networks (SQCNN) technology. Compared to existing quantum neural network models, the scalable quantum convolutional neural network model developed by WiMi demonstrates superior performance, significantly improving classification accuracy.

Traditional quantum neural network models, when handling complex image classification tasks, often suffer from biases in classification results due to incomplete or inaccurate feature extraction. In contrast, the scalable quantum convolutional neural network model, through optimized utilization of qubits and a unique network architecture design, can more accurately extract key features from images, thereby significantly improving classification accuracy. Additionally, in terms of model generalization, the scalable quantum convolutional neural network model can better adapt to the characteristics of different datasets, enabling accurate classification even when faced with new data. This advantage makes it more stable and reliable in practical applications, preventing significant performance degradation due to minor data variations. In terms of training efficiency, the scalable quantum convolutional neural network model greatly reduces the time required for training through optimization of quantum algorithms. By leveraging advanced algorithms and efficient quantum computing architectures, the scalable quantum convolutional neural network model significantly enhances application efficiency.

In traditional convolutional neural networks, the convolutional layer performs convolution operations on the image through a sliding convolution kernel to extract local features of the image. In the quantum circuit of the scalable quantum convolutional neural network, similar functionality is achieved by relying on the superposition and entanglement properties of quantum gates. The superposition of quantum gates allows qubits to exist in multiple states simultaneously, which is equivalent to processing multiple features at the same time, significantly improving processing efficiency. The entanglement between qubits establishes more complex correlations, enabling the quantum circuit to learn subtler and deeper features in the image. This unique design allows the quantum circuit of the scalable quantum convolutional neural network to better learn features, providing a solid foundation for subsequent classification tasks.

In particular, in the scalable quantum convolutional neural network system, multiple independent quantum devices can extract features in parallel, a design that is highly innovative and practical. In traditional machine learning tasks, feature extraction is often performed sequentially, which limits processing speed and efficiency. In contrast, the parallel design in the scalable quantum convolutional neural network system allows different quantum devices to simultaneously extract features from different parts of an image or different types of features, akin to multiple workers operating simultaneously in different areas, significantly accelerating the speed of feature extraction. Moreover, this design allows for the flexible use of quantum devices of varying sizes. When facing machine learning tasks of different scales and complexities, quantum devices of appropriate sizes can be selected and combined based on actual needs. For simple, small-scale tasks, smaller quantum devices can be used to reduce costs and computational complexity; for complex, large-scale tasks, multiple larger-scale quantum devices can be combined to meet the computational demands of the task, thereby enabling larger-scale machine learning tasks.

The scalable quantum convolutional neural network explored by WiMi not only achieves parallelization and multidimensionality in feature extraction but also breaks the conflict between computational resources and task complexity through its ability to dynamically adapt to the scale of quantum devices. This innovation not only significantly enhances the accuracy and efficiency of image classification but also strikes a balance between generalization capability and training costs, providing technical support for high-real-time, high-complexity scenarios such as autonomous driving and medical image analysis. With the continuous development of quantum technology, it will propel artificial intelligence toward a higher-dimensional computational paradigm.
