Nassos Daphnis's Abstract Constructions Exhibition in Saint-Paul-de-Vence Marks First French Show Since 1962

An exhibition titled "Abstract Constructions" in Saint-Paul-de-Vence features the vibrant colors of American painter Nassos Daphnis, whose work has not been displayed in France since 1962. Daphnis, who transitioned from horticulture to abstract art, was part of the urban art movement in New York during the 1970s. The show highlights his shift from earlier practices to his involvement in city-based artistic developments. It underscores a significant return to French audiences after over six decades, focusing on his abstract compositions and their visual intensity. The event draws attention to his career trajectory and the historical gap in his European exposure.
