Galerie Ferraro - Art Good Enough to Steal
BY Mike Kalder FOR FR2DAY.COM Mar 4, 2010
Galerie Ferraro on Rue du Congres, near the Palais Mediterranee in Nice was opened in 1972 to promote the work of artists from the ‘Ecole de Nice' and New Realism. The gallery grew out Ferrero Studio, founded in 1954 by Jean Ferraro, a photographer influenced by great Cote d'Azur artists such as Picasso, Cocteau, and Hartung as well as the then lesser known Arman, Cesar and Klein.
Since then the gallery has passed to the present director William Aral and in 2007 a new space on Rue du Congres was opened for exhibitions. The Gallery has some fabulous artifacts for sale from sculptures to prints, photographs, paintings - even museum pieces. The accent is definitely on the contemporary and the unusual. Picasso and Cesar would have approved of many of the pieces on sale. Galerie Ferraro is a great place to look for unusual gifts.
So good in fact that the gallery website has a CCTV picture of a woman apparently stealing an artwork. One of the less subtle art thefts of the decade. Any info contact Galerie Ferraro, contact details below.. and no John Terry's mum has not been on holiday in Nice.
