An exquisite combination unrivalled the world over. No other sculpture captures this energy of life bursting forth from the earth quite like Stefan Szczesny\u2019s Arbre de Vie, his tree of life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The glossy metallic surfaces of the trunk and the leaves reflect the vital energy surrounding them, before multiplying it in every direction. Although deeply rooted in place, the tree seems to blend almost invisibly into its surroundings. This masterfully crafted sculpture was the dazzling heart of the Palais des Papes in Avignon in 2014.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Carried in by a helicopter, it now bathes the citadel &#8211; standing watch over the city &#8211; in a glorious play of light and shadow. We are proud to be making a key contribution to the 2017 exhibition in Saint-Tropez with this extraordinary work of art.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Exposition Stefan Szczesny<br \/>\nCitadelle de Saint-Tropez<br \/>\n1, mont\u00e9e de la citadelle,<br \/>\n83990 Saint-Tropez<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Phone: +33 (0)4 94 97 59 43<br \/>\nEmail: <span id=\"cloakaecb4ad6082e886c0920157e00c15bac\"><a href=\"mailto:citadelle@ville-sainttropez.fr\">citadelle@ville-sainttropez.fr<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sainttropeztourisme.com\/en\/events\/2017-06-10-063000-monumental-sculptures-exhibition-by-stefan-szczesny\/\">Saint-Tropez Tourisme<\/a><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;10px&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1024&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][vc_column_text]<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/art\/\"><span style=\"color: #de003b;\">&lt; Return to overview<\/span><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Retrospective at the Citadel of Saint-Tropez, 10th June \u2013<br \/>\n30th November, 2017.  <span style=\"padding-left:0px; color:#de003b;\">More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":508,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[],"post_series":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/638"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=638"}],"version-history":[{"count":18,"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/638\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1096,"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/638\/revisions\/1096"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/508"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=638"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=638"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=638"},{"taxonomy":"post_series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cosmo-foundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/post_series?post=638"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
