Le Grand Mess by Theo Mercier at Nantes ends April 28th

 

Dear Shaded Viewers,

The French artist, not even thirty, has received more awards, solo shows than most artists do in a lifetime. Currently he's in residence at the Villa Medici. He loves to play with normal household items and somehow make the unsuspecting objects turn into something sexual.
