The Venus II art exhibition in Lyon aims to raise awareness about breast cancer.
The show is two folds.
The first part gathers a new generation of artists from contemporary art, Low Brow, graffiti or tattoo at Spacejunk gallery: Vinz, Goin, Lime, K’nar, Brusk, Herve All, Sophie Haza, Joachim Albert, Olivier Mosset, Florent Espana, Blandine Dubos, Bullit Ballabeni, Damien Nicolau, Rodolphe Bessey.
Each of them has created a work using the same support, a resin bust of the Venus de Milo.
The other part is showcased in nine locations throughout the Lyon area. 80 artists and seven associative structures worked on plaster busts with the involvement of 140 local women.
On Tuesday 29 November all the artworks will be on view at the City Hall of Villeurbanne. The day will conclude with a charity auction with all proceeds going to Europa Donna, the European Breast Cancer Coalition.
