Regarding the anthological exhibition of Stoppani-Legavre, couple of artists who have worked together for several decades and are currently neighbors of the museum, a series of audio guides were incorporated that document the sample, which can be visited with prior reservation until the next 10 of March.
For example, in the audios you can hear about “Astronauts” Y “Luxury Ladies”, works exhibited before man reached the moon, or the design of the curtain of the work “The Fridge” (the refrigerator) of Children, Writer, playwright, actor and comedian based in Paris; or what the different decorated pianos that Stoppani rebuilt for the exhibition are about and represent the pop art and kitsch of the 60.
