Exposition “Le Prince bâtisseur. Une ambition pour Monaco”

Through models, plans, photographs, objects and documents never before presented, the exhibition aims to show how Prince Rainier III has durably transformed the face of his state.

In order to build lasting economic prosperity, Prince Rainier III equipped himself with political, legal and constitutional tools that enabled him to build a modern state: a new constitution, redefined relations with France, international openness and the strengthening of tourist appeal through the creation of events that still mark the year in the Principality today.

This exhibition shows how Prince Rainier III was both a part of historical continuity and innovation, even showing himself to be resolutely revolutionary in his approach to urban planning, driven by a single ambition: to guarantee the prosperity and well-being of the people of Monaco, to whom he was bound by a bond of affection as much as by a constitutional oath

Curator: Stéphane Bern and Christian Curau - Scenography: Coraline Delorme and Thomas Guillaume

The exhibition takes its name from "pietre paesine", ruined marble, whose geological markings are reminiscent of painted landscapes, on the boundary between figuration and abstraction. This analogy of nature and technique is a central theme in the work of Francisco Tropa, which focuses on the way in which an image appears and is perceived.

As visitors explore the seven exhibition spaces, each devoted to a single colour, they will also hear audio creations by Roque Rivas, smell fragrances from Alexis Dadier from perfume maker Fragonard, and admire designs by the likes of Ron Arad, Jean Prouvén, and Philippe Starck. Marion Maelander will design the installations, while William Chatelain will orchestrate the scenography, creating an enthralling and emotional experience of colour.
