Ernest Pignon-Ernest retrospective at MAMAC Nice

The MAMAC (Musée d'Art Moderne et d'Art Contemporain) in Nice is hosting a major retrospective of Ernest Pignon-Ernest's work, running until November 27, 2016. The exhibition aims to give full visibility to the artist's unique practice, which has often been misunderstood by official critics and overlooked by cultural institutions and major museums. Pignon-Ernest is known for his pagan icons and street art interventions, blending religious and mythological imagery with contemporary urban contexts.
