At the Villa Datris, a foundation for contemporary sculpture in picturesque L'Isle-sur-La-Sorgue, in the Vaucluse region of Provence, this year's summer exhibition explores nature in its multitude of facets -- peaceful, tumultuous, marvellous or disquieting, ranging from the Garden of Eden to ecological catastrophe.
Running until November 1, the show "De Nature en Sculpture," brings together museum quality works by an international group of 65 artists, such as the Belgian ceramist Johan Creten's troubling meditation on metamporphosis, "Why does Strange Fruit look so Sweet", and Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama's ode to joy, 'All About Happiness'.
The artists include Michel Blazy, David Nash, Giuseppe Penone and Eva Jospin. An installation by Nils-Udo graces the gardens of the villa.

Not far from L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, set among vineyards in the countryside between the Luberon national park and Aix-en-Provence, Chateau La Coste is a celebrated biodynamic winemaker, boutique hotel and art center.
This summer the chateau is celebrating the completion of a permanent installation by Chinese artist Ai Weiwei. Called "Ruyi Path" -- a reference to the ceremonial scepter that symbolizes power and good fortune in Chinese history -- it's a pathway that weaves between forest trees to connect two ancient routes on the property. Both sculptural and architectural, built with salvaged cobblestones from the neighboring port of Marseilles, it gives a new life to stones rich in the history of Mediterranean trade and migration.
Also over the summer months works by British artist Tracey Emin and Japanese photographer Hiroshi Sugimoto will be on show at the chateau. "Surrounded by You", Emin's first French monographic exhibition, runs 2 July -31 August. Twelve paintings will be on show, summing up her work over the last 10 years, together with two monumental bronze sculptures made specially for this exhibition. Sugimoto's show, "The Sea and the Mirror," will run until 3 September.

距离 L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue 不远处，坐落在 Luberon 国家公园和艾克斯普罗旺斯的乡村之间的葡萄园中，Chateau La Coste 是著名的生物动力酿酒师，精品酒店和艺术中心。
今年夏天，这个城堡正在庆祝中国艺术家艾未未的永久安装。被称为“路易之路” - 是指象征中国历史上权力和好运的仪式权杖，它是在森林之间连接两条古代路线的途径。雕塑和建筑都是由邻近的马赛港修复的鹅卵石制成的，它为富有地中海贸易和移民史的石块创造了新的生命。
另外在夏季，英国艺术家特雷西·艾明（Tracey Emin）和日本摄影师菅本弘雄（Sugosoto）将在城堡举行演出。 “围绕着你”，Emin 的第一个法国专题展览将于8月2日至8日举行。十几幅绘画将在过去十年中展出，总结了两幅专门用于本次展览的古铜色雕塑作品。杉本的表演“海与镜”将持续至9月3日。
