Les Mondes imaginaires

The Espace Monte-Christo plunges you into a narrative and poetic dimension with its new exhibition. With a selection of over 50 sculptures by French and international artists, Imaginary Worlds is an invitation to broaden your horizons through a dreamlike journey conceived as a story in several chapters. Populated by strange animals, a mysterious forest stretches to the edge of an unfathomable city of houses and architecture, bordered by a beach where, in the shade of colourful palm trees, stands a makeshift hut. In his immersive installation "La Famille des Hybridus" (The Hybridus Family), Jean-François Fourtou, the exhibition's carte blanche artist, presents more than a dozen half-human, half-plant characters, illustrating with poetry and nostalgia moments in life inspired by the Belle Époque, and projecting an idyllic image of humanity in symbiosis with nature.
