Niki de Saint Phalle (1930-2002) is best known for her oversized figures, which embrace contradicting qualities such as good and evil, modern and primitive, sacred and profane and play and terror.
The monograph covers 50 years of work, surveying her wonderfully colourful and sensual paintings, assemblages, sculptures and reliefs.
The catalogue raisonné presents her paintings, multy-media assemblages, her revolutionary shooting paintings and the colorful and sometimes moving reliefs from the 80's and 90's.
