Few artists' lives are as inspiring as that of Niki de Saint Phalle. \n\nWhile she started her career as a fashion model, a subsequent breakdown led to her taking up painting as therapy. Entirely self-taught, Niki spent the rest of her years devoted to art that was based in emotional truth and a feminist point of view. \n\nThis graphic novel follows Niki's extraordinary career, from her early \"shooting pictures,\" in which she fired bullets at bags of paint, to the creation of the exuberantly formed life-sized dolls she called \"Nanas,\" which established her as an international success. The book also looks at her close collaborations with her husband and fellow artist Jean Tinquely; her painting, drawing, assemblage, performance art, and large-scale installations; and her work in film, theater, and architecture. The texts explore how Niki tackled social and political issues and institutions- and shows why her work remains as eloquent and powerful today as when it was first created. \n\nLooking beyond her brightly colored sculptures, this book tells the story of a woman who fought for a fairer world; a headstrong outsider, who made a name for herself in the male-dominated art world of the day; and an autodidact, who became one of the greatest artists of her time.

Innovative and pioneering, French-American artist Niki de Saint Phalle (1930-2002) created an extensive and complex body of work over her five decade long career. Her work received international recognition as early as 1961 when her work was included in the important exhibition 'The Art and Assemblage' at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Since then Saint Phalle has been the subject of numerous exhibitions worldwide. Her bright and joyful Nana sculptures have become known as her signature artwork. The artist and her oeuvre however, cannot be solely understood through this one body of work. This catalogue, accompanying the artist's first comprehensive retrospective in Belgium at Beaux-Arts Mons (BAM), explores Saint Phalle's multi-faceted practice, examining how the artist worked across a wide-range of media - painting, assemblage, sculpture, performance, public sculpture and architectural projects, film and theatre. Providing an overview of Saint Phalle's entire career, it seeks to demonstrate how the artist used her boundless imagination and unique vision of the world to transcend the space typically reserved for women to become one of the twentieth century's most important artists.\n\nThe title - \"Here Everything is Possible\" - is a statement made by Saint Phalle about her monumental sculpture park: The Tarot Garden in Tuscany, Italy. It should however, be read as a testimony to the artist's attitude to her entire artistic process - one of limitless possibility. This extensive, fully illustrated, catalogue includes new scholarly texts by Catherine Francblin, Alison Gingeras, Denis Laoureux, Camille Morineau, Kyla McDonald and Xavier Roland. The essays are accompanied by interviews with Daniel Abadie and Marcelo Zitelli, who both worked closely with the artist during her lifetime, and an illustrated biography.

A timely reassessment of the artist's early performances and feminist sculptures, affirming their radical engagements and art historical significance\n\n This volume is a focused look at two bodies of work, the Tirs (\"shooting paintings\") and Nanas (\"dames\"), in the experimental 1960s practice of the French-American artist Niki de Saint Phalle (1930-2002). Alongside a poetic response to the work, four essays treat Saint Phalle's oeuvre as works of radical performance and feminist art, as well as highlighting her transatlantic projects and collaborations. A chronology with photo-documentation and known participants details for the first time all Tirs shooting events in Europe and the United States, and another timeline recaps Saint Phalle's life in the 1960s. \n\nTirs were made by firing a .22 caliber rifle at the surfaces of paintings. The bullets pierced bags of pigment, aerosol paint cans, or even food embedded in dense assemblages covered in painted plaster. Saint Phalle's increasingly liberated female figures with outstretched arms, curvaceous forms, and powerful poses developed into her well-known Nanas, an evolution contemporaneous with the rise of a Euro-American feminist movement.\n\nDistributed for the Menil Collection and the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego\n\nExhibition Schedule:\n\nMenil Collection, Houston\n (September 10, 2021-January 23, 2022)\n\nMuseum of Contemporary Art, San Diego\n (April 9-July 17, 2022)

New York, 1947. Niki de Saint Phalle, diciassette anni, è radiosa nel suo vestito di tulle bianco per il ricevimento del Waldorf Astoria che sancirà il suo ingresso nel mondo degli adulti dell'Upper East Side. Tutto deve essere perfetto, per questa figlia dell'aristocrazia francese trapiantata in America: il corpetto stretto al punto giusto, l'auto in attesa alle sette e mezzo, i guanti candidi. Ma quello splendore è solo effimero, perché l'adolescente Niki cova dentro di sé un desiderio insopprimibile di libertà, di evasione dalla gabbia dorata in cui è rinchiusa. In testa, Niki ha sempre il pensiero dell'arte: che siano il teatro e la drammaturgia, dove ha già mosso i suoi primi passi, la pittura o la scultura. L'arte è il suo rifugio, il solo luogo dove trovare l'indipendenza e il potere da sempre negati alle donne. Toscana, 1998. Nel verde-argento dell'uliveto si innalzano ventidue sculture monumentali, una macchia di colore fra lo scintillio del sole e la striscia azzurra del Tirreno. È il Giardino dei Tarocchi, l'opera a cui Niki, ormai artista affermata, ha dedicato vent'anni: un desiderio covato a lungo e finalmente realizzato. È fra queste due diapositive che corre l'intera esistenza di Niki de Saint Phalle, scultrice geniale, enfant terrible del Nouveau Réalisme; un'esistenza appassionata e rocambolesca, che Niki attraversa guardando sempre alle donne, alla loro libertà, ai loro desideri. È per questo che, giovanissima, accetta un lavoro di fotomodella e fugge da New York con Harry Mathews, soldato di Marina. Ed è sempre per questo che, quando viene raggiunta dall'ombra di un terribile segreto del passato, dà vita alle celebri Nana, sculture trionfanti di grandi ballerine colorate, il paradigma stesso della gioia di vivere. A suo agio fra gli artisti del suo tempo – Max Ernst e Constantin Brâncuși, ma soprattutto lo svizzero Jean Tinguely – Niki osa finalmente sognare le sculture del suo giardino incantato. Ma per esaudire quel sogno molta è la strada da fare, e altrettanti i sacrifici da consumare... Dopo La scultrice. Vita di Camille Claudel, Pia Rosenberger torna a raccontarci una vita spregiudicata, in un romanzo dove finzione e realtà si mescolano per restituirci il ritratto a colori accesi di una grande artista del Novecento.

A biography by Nicole Rudick told in Saint Phalle's own words, assembled from rare and unseen materials\n\nKnown best for her exuberant, often large-scale sculptural works that celebrate the abundance and complexity of female desire, imagination and creativity, Niki de Saint Phalle viewed making art as a ritual, a performance—a process connecting life to art. This unconventional, illuminated biography, told in the first person in Saint Phalle's voice and her own hand, dilates large and small moments in Saint Phalle's life which she sometimes reveals with great candor, at other times carefully unwinding her secrets. Nicole Rudick, in a kind of collaboration with the artist, has assembled a gorgeous and detailed mosaic of Saint Phalle's visual and textual works from a trove of paintings, drawings, sketches and writings, many previously unpublished or long unavailable, that trace her mistakes and successes, her passions and her radical sense of joy. Saint Phalle's invocation—her \"bringing to life\"—writes Rudick, \"is an apt summation of the overlap of Saint Phalle’s life and art: both a bringing into existence and a bringing to bear. These are visions from the frontiers of consciousness.\"\n\nBorn in France, Niki de Saint Phalle (1930–2002) was raised in New York and began making art at age 23, pursuing a revelatory vision informed both by the monumental works of Antonin Gaudí and the Facteur Cheval, and by aspects of her own life. In addition to her Tirs (“shooting paintings”) and Nanas and her celebrated large-scale projects—including the Stravinsky Fountain at the Centre Pompidou, Golem in Jerusalem and the Tarot Garden in Tuscany—Saint Phalle produced writing and works on paper that delve into her own biography: childhood and her break with her family, marriage to Harry Mathews, motherhood, a long collaborative relationship with Jean Tinguely, numerous health crises and her late, productive years in Southern California. Saint Phalle has most recently been the subject of retrospectives at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, in 2015, and at MoMA P.S.1, in 2021.\n\nNicole Rudick is a critic and an editor. Her writing on art, literature and comics has been published in the New York Review of Books, the New York Times, the New Yorker, Artforum and elsewhere. She was managing editor of the Paris Review for nearly a decade. She is the editor, most recently, of a new edition of Gary Panter’s legendary comic Jimbo: Adventures in Paradise (New York Review Comics, 2021).

Leoni, leopardi, orsi, elefanti, uccelli tropicali, e fiori di ogni tipo, barocchi e futuristi, rigogliosi e stilizzati e tante geometrie, classiche e psichedeliche, senza contare le divagazioni pittoriche con citazioni di Magritte, Niki de Saint-Phalle, Arman. Parliamo delle mille cravatte, nessuna anonima, quasi tutte squillanti, o, come azzardava qualcuno \"impossibili\", che Pier Giovanni Marzili, professore dell'Università di Firenze, ha voluto donare alla Galleria del Costume di Palazzo Pitti a Firenze. Il libro, interamente a colori, presenta una selezione cospicua di queste opere d'arte in seta riprese nell'abitazione del professore, in parte con sculture, antiche cornici e strumenti musicali.

Niki de Saint Phalle (1930-2002) made a name for herself on the international art scene during the late 1950s and early 1960s. She was a key figure in the new generation of young artists who, at the beginning of the 1960s, were redefining the boundaries of what an artwork could be. Saint Phalle had a clear socio-political agenda and feminist commitment throughout her career. To an increasing degree, she worked in close dialogue with society and her audience, and by about the mid-1970s she invited them into monumental architectonic constructions in public settings. The catalogue explores different facets of this pioneering artist's practices, such as her feminist commitment, her public art and her role as muse for the fashion giant, Dior.

Her sensual Nanas-buxom, colorful female figures laid the foundation for her international success beyond the art world: Niki de Saint Phalle. But the self-taught artist's creative spectrum is much broader, and her unconventional oeuvre, ranging from painting and drawing to assemblages, performances, theatre, film, and architecture, is more subversive and critical of society than is widely assumed. Based on her efforts to process her own feelings, she addressed social and political issues, critically questioning institutions and role models in ways that are as relevant today as they have ever been. The exhibition and the publication shed new light on the artist's exceptional personality and uncover the wide-ranging oeuvre of the popular outsider-that is always surprising and eccentric, emotional, dark and brutal, humorous and cheerful.
