She named the park :
“ the artistic work of my life”
because the creation of this park
lasted twenty years and required
many ceramists.
Financial because she wanted to finance alone this big project.
she had Jean Tinguely, her second husband as an artist too, but she
refused most of his financial help.
IT WAS ALSO FINANCIAL AND SOCIAL
QUESTIONS TO FINISH THE PARC.
Social questions
because it was a big
ceramist team, and a
factory had been built
near the village, so she
was afraid to lost the
“precious hands”.
A new destination for your holidays ?
