“For the beauty of the gesture”: Deauville celebrates Olympic sport with a moving exhibition. Each of the works reveals this aesthetic of the sporting movement through eight different disciplines: tennis, football, rugby, boxing, high jumping, diving, archery and even running.

It is also an opportunity to remember that in addition to the international delegations it will receive during the Games, the Normandy seaside resort will have the honor of receiving the Paralympic flame on August 26. “The exhibition thus highlights the back and forth between sport and culture, two worlds which constantly enrich each other,” continues the exhibition curator.
