  • Visitors to Saint Paul's Cathedral in Liège can now discover a rereading of the Passion with bronzes by Thierry Papart, accompanied by meditations by Michel Teheux: Ecce homo! Like chess pieces placed on a checkerboard, the 15 steles topped with bronzes by artist Thierry Papart, accompanied by meditations composed by Michel Teheux, immediately catch the eye.Slender, threadlike figures, undeniably reminiscent of Giacometti, draw the passer-by into a drama. That of a man, unjustly condemned. The bronzes help us to enter...
