Michel Blazy exhibition in Villa Sauber

Michel Blazy exhibition from Saturday 16 December to Sunday 18 March from 10 am to 6 pm Nouveau Musée National – Villa Sauber.

The NMNM presents at the Villa Sauber a new monumental work by Michel Blazy entitled Collection de Chaussures (2015-2017), co-produced by the NMNM and the Monaco Cultural Affairs Department for the last edition of the Venice Biennale. Shoe Collection is made up of a metal structure as a frame, inside which a light source is diffused and water conveyed, all serving as food for different species of plants growing in 27 pairs of worn sneakers.

In two other rooms are presented works by Michel Blazy from the NMNM collections: Peau de Bête (2011) and Nature Molle (2004), which will be activated and presented for the first time in Monaco.

Michel Blazy, born in Monaco, has acquired an international reputation thanks to its installations integrating living materials.

Throughout the exhibition, visitors will be able to follow and document the slow transformation of these works in perpetual change.
