Niki de Saint Phalle (1930-2001) was a French sculptor, painter, and illustrator who was best known for her playful sculptures of brightly painted female figures called "nanas" or "babes." Born near Paris in 1930, Niki de Saint Phalle traveled and worked around the world, joining the New Realist art movement in Europe and becoming its only female member. There she met fellow artist Jean Tinguely in 1960, whom she later married after ending her first marriage to American Harry Matthews. In 1979 Saint Phalle began work on her biggest project, a monumental sculpture park called The Tarot Garden. Located in Tuscany, Italy, the garden contains oversized “nana” sculptures of the symbols found on Tarot cards. Each sculpture was created in Saint Phalle’s signature style, with rounded limbs and voluptuously curved bodies painted in bright colors. http://www.art-stl.com/public-art/public-art-details.cfm?pid=460&title=Adam%20and%20Eve&Artist=Niki%20de%20Saint%20Phalle%20
