Mythology has it that Pygmalion created a sculpture so beautiful that he fell hopelessly in love with it. And when you see the works of certain artists exhibited in Paris and the Île-de-France region, it's easy to understand: these sculptors are madly talented! These works look as if they're about to move, so realistic are their features.
In short, we love sculpture exhibitions. And we love even more the museums, galleries and institutions in Paris and the Île-de-France region, which showcase exceptional sculptors through constantly renewed exhibitions.
