Hypersensitive – Musée d’arts de Nantes, France

For its major exhibition 2023, the Musée d’arts de Nantes takes a look at hyperrealist sculpture. This artistic form, little exposed in France since its birth in the United States in the 1960s, has experienced a resurgence of interest since the 1990s.

With more than thirty works by eleven international sculptors, some of which have never been seen before, the Musée d’arts explores the profoundly human and sensitive nature of this meticulously realistic sculpture, whose illusion effect is particularly striking. A sensitive experience and an event not to be missed!

The artists exhibited:
Gilles Barbier, Berlinde De Bruyckere, John DeAndrea, Daniel Firman, Duane Hanson, Sam Jinks, Tony Matelli, Saana Murtti, Evan Penny, Marc Sijan, Tip Toland.
