Le clou de l’exposition (et vice versa)

 The nail. Such an insignificant object that it seems absurd to dedicate an entire exhibition to it. And yet, beyond its utilitarian role, it contains rich layers of meaning : crucifixion nails, African nail fetish figures, studded jackets, piercings, popular expressions, and more. In their quest to hammer home the importance of this subject, the exhibition creators have totally nailed it !
