“Wave” (1992) by Mario Ceroli.

The work of Mario Ceroli, known as the pope of Arte Povera in Italy, will be on show at the Galerie Tornabuoni (16, Avenue Matignon, 75008 Paris; tel.: 01 53 53 51 51) Oct. 8-Dec. 11. This is a rare chance to see the work of this prolific 72-year-old sculptor, who works primarily with wood and glass to make his monumental pieces and has kept the lion’s share in a series of barn/studios on his farm outside Rome.
