Exhibition - "George Condo - Humanoids"
From Friday 31 March to Sunday 1 October 2023, Nouveau Musée National de Monaco - Villa Paloma
For George Condo, "the Humanoid is not a science fiction monster, but a depiction that uses traditional methods to bring a person's inner emotions to the surface". Over the course of eight sections, the exhibition traces the continuity of a profuse body of work that ranges from “space beings” to Who’s Who, from Guido Reni to Bugs Bunny. Featuring specially produced paintings, the exhibition offers a glimpse of the artist’s process of invention – as crazy as it is erudite – of humanoids.

Exhibition - "Santo Sospir - Mauro Restiffe / Jean Cocteau"
From Tuesday 13 June to Sunday 15 October 2023, Nouveau Musée National de Monaco - Villa Sauber
The Nouveau Musée National de Monaco presents "Santo Sospir", an exhibition by the artist Mauro Restiffe, inspired by the house occupied and decorated by Jean Cocteau in Saint-Jean Cap-Ferrat between 1950 and 1962. This silent conversation, orchestrated by Restiffe in the Villa Sauber, is like a cinematographic montage that alternates long shots and close-ups, monumental prints and smaller formats, fostering an embodied vision of the tattooed villa, where a (faceless) self-portrait of the author appears.
