Programme
Faire corps
In 2024, Villa Datris explores the vision of the body by 65 artists from around the world. The exhibition features sculptures by men and women who give shape to both spirit and matter, taking the pulse of human representation at its most contemporary. Niki de Saint Phalle's sensitive and generous installation, Last Night I Had a Dream, in which the bodies of the famous "nanas" take flight in 18 bas-reliefs, is particularly noteworthy.
