Over 100 works by Niki de Saint-Phalle (Neuilly-sur-Seine, 1930 – San Diego, 2002) will be exhibited for the first time in Italy. Artist, author and performer whose name is associated with an extraordinary artistic path that goes beyond classifications and fashions, mingled with a tumultuous and fascinating life. All her works, from the polychrome sculptures (Nanas) to the famous Giardino dei Tarocchi (the Tarot Garden) in Capalbio, reflect this energy.
The curator, Stefano Cecchetto, has created a route that follows the artist’s inner path. Consequently the exhibition aligns and compares many of her early paintings, those from the 1950s and 1960s and the polychrome Nanas for which Niki de Saint Phalle became famous throughout the world.
