Voyage dans le cristal Group exhibit featuring Patrick Neu at Musée de Cluny, Paris, France

The exhibition brings together artistic masterpieces from prehistory to contemporary art. They illustrate the attraction and mystery aroused by the transparency of quartz in all civilizations, and particularly in the Middle Ages. The narration, chronological and thematic, suggests dreamlike and fantastic universes highlighting the multiple aspects of the aesthetic, scientific and spiritual power of rock crystal.
The curatorship is ensured by Isabelle Bardiès-Fronty, general curator of heritage at the Cluny museum – national museum of the Middle Ages and Stéphane Pennec, archaeologist, curator-restorer, president of AÏNU.
