The entire building is a fabulous art museum where you can admire the works of the famous artist Gabriele Maquignaz in great detail.
As a child, he manifested a propensity and talent for creative manual skills, which would culminate during his maturity in a physical and spiritual need to express himself through painting and sculpture.
Personal research around the themes of death and life, a true obsession for the artist who has been severely tested by personal experiences, is an essential element of his art, around which he experiments and searches first and foremost for the essence of himself.
The meeting with François Thévénin, a well-known sculptor from Cannes, marked a decisive turning point in Maquignaz's creations.
