Until October 31, for its 15th anniversary, the Tête is celebrating!
To commemorate this, an exhibition of Sacha Sosno’s original works, along with a series of variations of the Tête Carrée, conferences about the artist, and activities and games for all ages including a book scavenger hunt, a quiz-game on Nice’s libraries, and a storytelling evening!
The exhibition will showcase original works by Sacha Sosno, the creator of the Tête Carrée, including “A ciel ouvert,” a 2.20 x 1.50m resin sculpture.
As a tribute to Sacha Sosno, the library will offer a collection of variations around the Tête Carrée created by artists or admirers of this unique inhabited monumental sculpture, which has become a strong architectural symbol of Nice.
Documents, photographs, and films will take you back to key moments from the inauguration of the Louis Nucéra Library in 2002.
