The High Priest and the High Priestess, the Magician and Justice, the Sun, Death and the Empress, are together in an enhanted garden, which is almost like a village, immersed in the Mediterranean maquis in southern Tuscany. A Garden inspired by the major arcana of the Tarot, and created by the powerful imagination of a Franco-American artist. "I wanted to give visitors, especially children, a place of Joy, where they could enjoy art and nature together," says Niki de Saint Phalle, who found the ideal setting for her dream - the most important work in her career - in the rolling, green, deserted hills of the Maremma, now populated by her colorful, magical Tarot Garden - or Garden of Delights. This book presents, for the first time, an illustrated account of the creation of this fascinating work, accompanied by essays by friends and art historians.

The Tarot Garden, situated in Italy, is a sculpture park, planned and created by Niki de Saint Phalle. It is her very personal vision of the personalities of the tarot-game: the world, the fool, the hermit, death, the wheel of fortune.

Niki de Saint Phalle knew art could save the world because art saved her. From madness, from violence. From herself. Niki de Saint Phalle was a French-American sculptor, painter, and filmmaker. She was one of the few women artists widely known for monumental sculpture.

The unique and spectacular oeuvre of Niki de Saint Phalle (1930-2002) comprises such well-known works as her Shooting Paintings, Nanas, and the Tarot Garden in Tuscany. The Grotto in Hanover, which was redesigned and redecorated according to her plans, is the last large-scale project completed during her lifetime. This imposing artistic legacy is situated in the Baroque section of the Herrenhausen Gardens, one of Germany's most beautiful park landscapes. Originally composed of shells, crystals, glass, and minerals, the Grotto's interior decor was destroyed during the 18th century. Transformed by Niki de Saint Phalle, the site has once again become a place of enchantment. The artist decorated the octagonal central space and the two rooms flanking it on the right and left with magnificent mosaics made of colored glass, mirrors, pebbles, and a host of painted and sculpted figures. This splendidly illustrated volume invites readers to stroll through the Grotto and provides a wealth of information on the history, the furnishings and decorations, and the symbolism of this last major work of art realized by Niki de Saint Phalle.

Set in the Maremma region of Southern Tuscany, this novel tells the story of two families against the backdrop of a rapidly transforming country. The Biagini are local ranchers, while the wealthy Sanfilippi belong to Rome's upper middle-class. When Sauro, an ambitious rancher, and Filippo, a hedonistic politician, become business partners, the stories of their families become irrevocably intertwined. As an influx of new money pours into the town, political allegiances, family loyalties, moral codes, and sexual identities all begin to shift. Sauro and Filippo, their wives Miriam and Giulia, and their sons, are the prototypes of the new Italy, ostensibly emancipated from traditional mores, but at the same time, insecure and blinkered. Fifteen-year-old Annamaria, fragile and anxious, struggles to find her place among them. Luckily, a parallel world is taking shape nearby: the Tarot Garden, the monumental sculpture garden created by the French-American artist Niki de Saint Phalle. It is in this magical place, through her conversations with the artist, that Annamaria will slowly find a sense of identity and belonging.

A biography by Nicole Rudick told in Saint Phalle's own words, assembled from rare and unseen materials Known best for her exuberant, often large-scale sculptural works that celebrate the abundance and complexity of female desire, imagination and creativity, Niki de Saint Phalle viewed making art as a ritual, a performance--a process connecting life to art. This unconventional, illuminated biography, told in the first person in Saint Phalle's voice and her own hand, dilates large and small moments in Saint Phalle's life which she sometimes reveals with great candor, at other times carefully unwinding her secrets. Editor Nicole Rudick, in a kind of collaboration with the artist, has assembled a gorgeous and detailed mosaic of Saint Phalle's visual and textual works from a trove of paintings, drawings, sketches and writings, many previously unpublished or long unavailable, that trace her mistakes and successes, her passions and her radical sense of joy. Saint Phalle's invocation--her "bringing to life"--writes Rudick, "is an apt summation of the overlap of Saint Phalle's life and art: both a bringing into existence and a bringing to bear. These are visions from the frontiers of consciousness." Born in France, Niki de Saint Phalle (1930-2002) was raised in New York and began making art at age 23, pursuing a revelatory vision informed both by the monumental works of Antonin Gaudí and the Facteur Cheval, and by aspects of her own life. In addition to her Tirs ("shooting paintings") and Nanas and her celebrated large-scale projects--including the Stravinsky Fountain at the Centre Pompidou, Golem in Jerusalem and the Tarot Garden in Tuscany--Saint Phalle produced writing and works on paper that delve into her own biography: childhood and her break with her family, marriage to Harry Mathews, motherhood, a long collaborative relationship with Jean Tinguely, numerous health crises and her late, productive years in Southern California. Saint Phalle has most recently been the subject of retrospectives at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, in 2015, and at MoMA P.S.1, in 2021. Nicole Rudick is a critic and an editor. Her writing on art, literature and comics has been published in the New York Review of Books, the New York Times, the New Yorker, Artforum and elsewhere. She was managing editor of the Paris Review for nearly a decade. She is the editor, most recently, of a new edition of Gary Panter's legendary comic Jimbo: Adventures in Paradise (New York Review Comics, 2021).
