The Animal Politique retrospective at the Centre Pompidou presents the work of Gilles Aillaud through his paintings of giraffes, lions and seals, often in captivity. Although it may seem as if he was depicting animals, it is our relationship with nature that is his only real subject. To mark the occasion, the Fondation Gandur pour l'Art lend a work by the artist: Grille et grillage (1971).

The Fondation Gandur pour l’Art and the Mémorial de Caen present Années pop, années choc, 1960-1975, their second exhibition crossing art and history. The show will delve into social, political, and cultural protest movements in France from 1960 to 1975. It will present the figurative paintings of artists, who brought a critical reflection on their time, from the Vietnam war in the aftermath of May 68.
