Exhibition “Dessus Dessous” by Julien Desmontiers at Suquet des Artistes
From May 11th to September 22nd, 2024, Suquet des Artistes in Cannes presents “Dessus Dessous”, an exhibition dedicated to the artist Julien des Monstiers.
Between fine arts and applied arts, Julien des Monstiers experiments with the limits of painting, seeking depth, surfaces, textures, folds, and fractures. The works presented at Suquet des Artistes, whether figurative or abstract, aim to show that the subject is not in the image but in the way it is made.

Exhibition George Nuku – Bottled Sea 2124
A New Zealand artist living in France, George Nuku is a descendant on his mother’s side of the Maori tribes Ngāti Kahungunu and Ngāti Tuwharetoa. He began working in communities in 1988 and has embarked on an artistic career that has taken him to Europe, the United States, and Asia. Today, he is one of the main figures of the Maori art scene. In 2014, he began a series of exhibitions in polystyrene and plexiglass that evoke the ocean and the problem of plastic waste thrown into it. These works have been exhibited in many museums around the world.
The exhibition at the Musée du Masque de Fer et du Fort Royal presents a selection of the artist’s works and installations inspired by the Lérins Islands and the history of the Iron Mask. The artist was also in residence at Fort Royal to create some of the installations and conduct Art and Culture Education workshops.
