Germany: Hanover - Niki de Saint Phalle's art in the Historic Grotto of the Herrenhausen Gardens
The Grotto, which dates from 1676, is situated in the northwest corner of the Grosser Garten. Originally its three rooms were ornamented with shells, crystals and minerals to create a place of enchantment and refuge from the heat of the day. In the 18th century these decorations were removed and for many years the building was used as a store. In 2001 a structural restoration started by which the interior was ornamented to designs by the artist Niki de Saint Phalle (1930-2002), a French sculptor, painter and filmmaker. In 1961, Niki de Saint Phalle became known around the world for her Shooting paintings. A shooting painting consisted of a wooden baseboard on which containers of paint were laid, and then covered with plaster. The painting was then raised and de Saint Phalle would shoot at it with a .22 calibre rifle. The bullets penetrated paint containers, which spilled their contents over the painting. After the "Shooting paintings" came a period when she explored the various roles of women. She began to use her artwork to consider archetypal female figures in relation to her thinking on the position of women in society. Her artistic expression of the proverbial every woman was named 'Nanas'. The grotto has an octagonal central entrance hall and the two rooms leading from it are decorated with mosaics of coloured glass and mirrors, pebbles and many painted fibreglass figures on the theme of the life of man and woman.

(1/9) Niki de Saint Phalle, Introspections and Reflections
This video is the introduction to my documentary Introspections and Reflections, which focuses on the fascinating life and art of Niki de Saint Phalle, the self-taught Franco-American aristocratic beauty who died in 2002. Although her art is internationally renowned and loved by people of all ages and cultures, her place in the history of contemporary art and sculpture remains undervalued by the art world.

Les tirs de Niki de St Phalle
Niki de St Phalle débute sa carrière artistique, encouragée par le peintre Hugh Weiss. 'Les tirs', performances durant lesquelles des spectateurs sont invités à tirer à la carabine sur des poches de couleur, éclaboussant ainsi des assemblages de plâtre, la rendent célèbre. Elle intègre alors le cercle des 'nouveaux réalistes', jouant le rôle de médiatrice entre les avant-gardes française et américaine.

PlayArt by Niki de Saint-Phalle & Jean Tinguely
Niki de Saint-Phalle and Jean Tinguely were pioneers of the PlayArt movement. As such they were rather non-conformist and an American journalist called them the "Bonnie and Clyde" of the art world. They even managed to transform gunshots and explosions, normally manifestations of violence, into playful events. PlayArt Website: playart.org
