PARIS, FRANCE, March 27, 2011 (Press-News.org) British artist Tony Cragg is the focus of an exhibition entitled Figure In Figure Out at Paris's prestigious Louvre museum.

There are eight pieces by the Liverpool-born sculptor on show, including one specifically created for the installation.

Cragg, a Turner Prize winner in 1988, was invited to display his art as a counterpoint to the venue's Franz Xaver Messerschmidt collection, according to the organisers.

They explained that the distortions and superimposed layers typical of the 18th century German-Austrian can be seen in a new piece by the Brit referred to as Untitled.

Bronze, wood, fibreglass and marble creations are included in the display, which highlights Cragg's diverse approach to art.

It costs EUR10 (GBP8.75) to enter the Louvre. Cragg's work will be on show in the Cour Marly and Cour Puget sections.

The building is closed on Tuesday, but open from 09:00 local time every other day. It shuts at 18:00 daily, except for Wednesday and Friday when it closes at 22:00.
