France 3 television’s Culturebox looks at the Niki de Saint Phalle retrospective now at the Château de Malbrouck, near Metz in the Moselle region of France.
The clip (in French) includes an interview with Bloum Cardenas, granddaughter of Niki de Saint Phalle and trustee of the Niki Charitable Art Foundation. The exhibition, which runs through 29 August 2010, features 130 works spanning the entire range of Niki’s career, from the shooting paintings of the early 1960s to the massive mosaic sculptures created during her years in California.
