Le Langage du Silence exhibition in Villers-la-Ville

Monumental sculptures on the abbey site

Come and discover this new trail, marked by 21 contemporary sculptures designed by 10 artists, each in dialogue with the majestic architecture of the site. Each creation blends harmoniously into this space steeped in history, whether gardens or old living quarters.

In a play of textures and colors, the works forged in metal compose a visual symphony with the age-old stones.

Like the Cistercian monks, the works exhibited take a vow of silence: they express themselves through the shapes, materials and emptiness that surround them. The exhibition invites you to adopt this language and contemplate the very essence of sculpture without a word.
