Niki de Saint Phalle
Niki de Saint Phalle’s art is eclectic and complicated, brave and outspoken. It reveals the unbridled ruminations and opinions of her multifaceted past and transforms them into celebrations of love, life and pure happiness. This transformation reminds us that her work does not simply stand alone, it becomes part of a larger dialogue she created for us to enjoy.
A self-taught sculptor, painter and filmmaker, Saint Phalle made a mark on art history that continues to have an extraordinary dimension. Her work is represented in numerous museums and public collections around the world. In 2000, she received the Praemium Imperiale in Japan, the equivalent of the Nobel Prize for the art world. In 2014, the Grand Palais in Paris exhibited a major restropective of her work that traveled to the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, where it currently resides. Saint Phalle died at the age of 71 in La Jolla, California, in 2002.
