In a world in search of meaning and authenticity, Sculpture, a major Art, is today more than ever \u201cthe Art of Princes and Kings\u201d.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For several years, Ferus Gallery<\/strong><\/a> has established itself as THE gallery of Sculpture and Photography on the C\u00f4te d’Azur.<\/p>\n

After placing works by Marino Di Teana<\/strong> (1920 \u2013 2012) at the Tour Od\u00e9on (Monaco), sculptures by Philippe Hiquily<\/strong> (1925 \u2013 2013) in the gardens of the prestigious villas of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and Lac des Trois Cantons (Switzerland), Ferus Gallery is proud to install a major work by Folon \u201cA Man\u201d, on the terraces of the Monaco Cardio-Thoracic Center, overlooking Port Hercule.<\/p>\n

For more than 20 years, the artist stayed regularly in Monaco<\/strong>, he died there in 2005. It was also in Monaco that, on the advice of his friend C\u00e9sar, he began to work on sculpture, producing the most accomplished part of his work.<\/p>\n
