Chlidren workshops – All Saints’ holiday
On the occasion of the exhibition « Victor Brauner, The Magical Adventure »
A major figure in international Surrealism, Victor Brauner (1903–1966) is a singular and special artist in the history of art, whose remarkable body of work remains to be discovered.
For the very first time, the exhibitionreveals an exceptional private collection based in Monaco that encompasses the artist’s entire production from the 1920s to the 1960s, covering painting, drawing and sculpture. Serving as a counterpoint to more than one hundred and sixty works from this collection, ten non-Western objets d’art collected by Victor Brauner, on loan from the Musée d’art modern et contemporain de Saint-Étienne Métropole, are also on display.
