Ici Nice

This « travel log » shows 47 artists' drawings living in Nice, invited to give a vision of "their" Nice, the place where they live. This book, created under the drection of the designer Stéphanie Marin is a real "city guide by the contmporary artists". Blank pages at the end of the book give to each "traveller-reader" the possibility to create his own drawing of Nice...
 

« Here in Nice is a travel log for just this kind of experience: a means for approaching the notion of travel and overcoming its inherent constraints » (Stéphanie Marin)
« Here in Nice evokes the modern layout as much as the subjects of contemplation from years past in the studios of Matisse, Dufy, or Yves Klein, who extracted in the azure of the Baie des Anges the pigments of the imperial blue on their easels. Ici Nice is a one-of-a-kind travelogue, intended for visitors to the city and produced by those coming back for another look. » (Olivier Marro)

Exhibition of the artists' drawings: from December, 10th to January 2012, the 10th, at the "Abattoirs" (NICE).
