Nice setting for an exhibition. I know her only for the figures of the Stravinsky Fountain, in Paris.
I am not sure if I like her works as art, but her figures are so joyful, creative and... photogenic!

Gotta love that Niki! I was looking at my photos of hers from Pompidou just this morning. She appreciates a "full" bodied woman and I like that!HA
