From 10 September 2025 to 26 January 2026, as a prelude to the "Minimal" exhibition, Pinault Collection presents the first solo show in France to Lygia Pape (1927-2004), an essential artist of the Brazilian avant-garde and pioneer.
Born in Nova Friburgo, Lygia Pape (1927–2004) was one of the most important ¡gures of the Brazilian artistic avant-garde of the second half of the twentieth century, alongside Lygia Clark and Hélio Oiticica. These artists understood artworks not as ¡nished objects, but as sensory presences that interact with the senses and consciousness of visitors. After studying philosophy and aesthetics, Pape chose the visual language to express her humanist vision of the world.
The exhibition "Lygia Pape. Weaving Space" is presented in Gallery 2.
