Recyclage / Surcyclage

For its 10^th exhibition in 2020, the Villa Datris Foundation chose to explore recycling in all its forms in contemporary sculpture and to question our relationship with objects.

Since the beginning of the 20th century^th, breaking with classical art, some artists are trying to give art a new form. To reflect their time, criticize a society of overconsumption and waste, they will be interested in recovering everyday objects.

This position is the affirmation of a profound ecological commitment and a form of asceticism in the act of creation. A new life cycle is taking place, a rebirth, to do everything new.
