Galerie Philia Opens Jean Nouvel Exhibition Racines Aériennes

Galerie Philia has opened Jean Nouvel: Racines Aériennes an exclusive exhibition set across Nice and St. Jean Cap Ferrat designed by architect Jean Nouvel in collaboration with Rivere Group. This marks the first time private residences designed by Jean Nouvel are to be used for an art and design exhibition.

Villa Maeterlinck in Nice and the villa in St. Jean Cap Ferrat both integrate into their respective landscapes and boast terrace gardens in front of a wide private sea view of the Mediterranean. The unassuming minimalism of Nouvel is further enhanced by Galerie Philia’s collection of elegant and sculptural design.

The gardens and interiors are united by harmonious scenography featuring unique pieces from the likes of Frederic Saulou, Andrés Monnier, Arno Declercq, Jojo Corväiá, Rick Owens, Elsa Foulon, and Jan Ernst to name a few.
