Fanny Allié

In 2018, at Rubis Mécénat’s request, French artist Fanny Allié created Kalos-Sthénos, a park bench in the Parc des Sens in Saint-Priest, France, representing a young man doing street workout.

Rubis Mécénat and Fanny Allié have worked together numerous times. In 2015, for the Société du Dépôt de Saint-Priest (a Rubis group subsidiary), the artist created Les Voyageurs, a serie of human figures made out of nylon string on a 70 meters long wall.

In 2012, Rubis Mécénat exhibited Silhouettes, an installation mixing neon and terracotta sculptures, video and performance, at St. Eustache Church, Paris.
