We are surrounded by objects, symbols and things that mark, determine and symbolise our daily lives. To make us see and understand them better, artists of the past and present perpetuate the still life.

Discover, from prehistory to contemporary art, how life inspires the plastic arts and how it represents the major themes of human nature.

Children will see their world with a new, lively and alert eye!
