Around 80 people, including other artists and gallery owners, were invited to a glass of local Quincy wine and canapés when they attended the ‘’Vernissage’ (exhibition preview) of F.Rabolios paintings in Nançay, central France this summer.

The interesting venue for this event was ‘MetalSpirit’ where Thierry Millet, the owner, creates and displays his unique brand of contemporary metal furniture www.metalspirit.fr

Thierry fashioned bespoke metal frames for several of the Rabolios paintings - and this made for a striking effect ! A lot of interest was also shown in the larger pieces of art (1m x 1m).

The F.Rabolios exhibition (Nançay) has been extended until September and several of the paintings will form part of an exhibition in Paris in October.
