Medieval and South Pacific Art

This exhibition reflects a pronounced taste for dialogue between different styles and artistic forms. Affinities between the pieces can take multiple aspects, sometimes obvious, sometimes more obscure. It could relate to a shape, a color, a common trait or a contrasting one, a pleasant dissonance…

Ancient art, whether classical or tribal, does not proscribe amusement. This is usually the response of collectors who are ever increasingly becoming practitioners of this kind of informed and erudite eclecticism in which works of art from all periods and civilizations communicate to each other with their quality and intrinsic beauty as a common language.
