- Une exposition fascinante et très accessible, qui plonge vraiment dans l’univers des illusions d’optique et des perspectives impossibles d’Escher. La scénographie, les nombreuses œuvres et les installations interactives rendent la visite à la fois ludique, immersive et très stimulante, dans le cadre prestigieux de la Monnaie de Paris. A voir sans hésiter !
- Belle exposition, ludique à la fois et le lieux est approprié ... en revanche je regrette de ne pas avoir pu visiter la monnaie de paris comme indiqué à savoir billet ouvert sur les deux endroits du même site , mais le dernier créneau ne permet pas cette visite et surtout aucune remise sur ce dernier créneau de la journée
- Expo bien organisée, diversité des activités
- tres intéressante exposition, seulement beaucoup de monde, victime de son succes!
- Excellent.. Il faut plus d’une heure pour en profiter de cette belle exposition.
- Surprenant! Très belle expo
- Superbe exposition!
- Très bonne mise en valeur des oeuvres est du parcours, autant sur l'esthétisme de l'artiste, que les explications concrètes, claires, de ce représente son travail au quotidien
- Magnifique expo riche et interactive !
- Très bonne scénographie Juste un appareil en panne...pas grave
- Superbe exposition. Immersive et hypnotique !
- Superbe exposition. il y avait du monde ( samedi après-midi) mais ceci n'a pas eu d'incidence sur la visité avec une possibilité de regarder l'ensemble des œuvres
- Exceptionnel sauf beaucoup trop de monde dans les salles
- Exposition exceptionnelle à voir absolument
- Très belle exposition mais TrOP de monde, comme souvent malheureusement !!!
