Programme
Passe-muraille : de Nan Goldin à Sol Lewitt, œuvres choisies dans la collection d’Yvon Lambert
The artists of the Collection Lambert guide our gaze to those elements of reality that we don’t always see. They remind us of the importance of questioning the limits daily life can impose, of seeing beyond the barriers. This exhibition is an invitation to break down those walls, to discover not only a new artistic perspective but also to find beauty in the poetry that resides in quotidian life.
