The City of Nice is very committed to involving local artists in cultural events of international stature, such as the request for the creation of official posters for the Nice Jazz Festival in 2022.
Now it’s the Nice Carnival’s turn to inspire Nice artists!
On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the emblematic carnival, whose theme this year is “King of the Treasures of the World”, the City of Nice is organizing an exhibition of works by 25 artists from Nice on the theme “The artists have the big head ” . Works that reconnect with the pictorial tradition of historical posters created by Gustav-Adolf Mossa or Jules Chéret.
The original creations will be on display at the Cap 3000 shopping center, 217 avenue Eugène Donadeï, and Carnival visitors will also be able to discover reproductions at the Carnival village, located on Place Masséna.
Artists participating in the exhibition:
Elodie AVATI, Virginia AZRIA, Florence BORJA, Brian CADDY, Laurent BOSIO, Virginie BROQUET, Riccardo CAURO, Cat CAROFF, Tina de RUBIA, Florence FABRIS, Manuel GILSON, GUICHOU, Ruzanna HAKOBYAN, Marc LAPOLLA, César MALFI, Svetà MARLIER, Gabriel MARTINEZ , Laurent MÔ, MILA, Marie-Caroline REGOTTAZ, Catherine RENS, TEHOS, Richard ROUX-GIUGE, Annabelle TATTU and Silva USTA.
