The Galerie d'Art Graphique serves as the backdrop to a unique exhibition devoted to the Danish modernist sculptor Sonja Ferlov Mancoba (1911-1984), with over fifty sculptures and sixty drawings. Discover a major modernist sculptor, who has also left us an original and intimate body of work on paper. Some of her sculptures are presented here in two versions, the original in plaster and another in bronze, in order to demonstrate what matter can provide in terms of expression, while revealing the creative process of this transfer. In the artist's view, art, and more particularly sculpture, is rooted in human expression. For her, the creation of the same figure in various matters provides a different note to this expression.
