Live from New York, it’s contemporary art. Fifty years’ worth comes to the Grimaldi Forum in Monte Carlo – 500 works by 200 artists, including film, photography and architecture. Laura Larcan in La Repubblica: “Creative euphoria, emancipation, liberty and dissolution. In other words, the belle epoque.” The Principality of Monaco offers an alphabetical guide. David D’Arcy at Artnet: “An admirable effort to add some high culture to Monaco’s typical mix of gambling and visits to the royal palace…A meandering tour through a half century of art.”
