Maria Pergay Video

We were honored to attend the opening of Maria Pergay’s exhibition on the Place de Vosges in the end of March of this year (see our posts from 18 April 2012). Nowness has made a beautiful video in which they interview Pergay and show her works from this exhibition, which span her 50 year-long career.
