A fascinating immersion into François Morellet’s universe

An artistic experience between logic and creativity

What makes this exhibition particularly captivating is the way it combines mathematical precision with artistic freedom. The works on display play with geometric structures, repetitions, and variations, creating visual compositions that are both simple and complex.
