Nouveau Réalisme Retrospective at Grand Palais, Paris

The Galeries nationales du Grand Palais in Paris hosted a major exhibition on Nouveau Réalisme from March 28 to July 2, 2007. The last significant show on the movement in France was at the Musée d'art moderne de la Ville de Paris in 1986, curated by Sylvain Lecombre and Noëlle Réveillaud-Chabert. Since then, many key figures have died, including Pierre Restany, the movement's founder, as well as Jean Tinguely, César, Niki de Saint-Phalle, Raymond Hains, and Arman.
