After four months of restoration, Niki de Saint Phalle\u2019s Nana<\/em> fountain (1967) has regained its original splendor thanks to curator-restorer Julia Becker and her team, who specializes in the restoration of wood and plastic. This monumental sculpture, one of the artist\u2019s first Nana<\/em>, was installed thirty years ago in the middle of the artificial pond of the sculpture garden of La Petite Escal\u00e8re (France). A restoration of its polychromy and of its hydraulic system had become a necessity. Thanks to the support of patrons and of the association Les Amis de la Petite Escal\u00e8re (Friends of La Petite Escal\u00e8re), Nana<\/em> is now back in its garden, among bamboos and crayfish.
