Through more than 160 works, including 96 sculptures, 38 drawings, 3 paintings and 26 photographs, the confrontation between master and student shows, with unprecedented ambition and scale, the fraternities and reciprocities, as well as the divergences and antagonisms of two creators, of two plastic universes, bearers of the great challenges of modernity.
