The Grace
Highlight • Monument
and is the work of Marianne Doucet, born in 1958
and teacher since 1978. Marianne Doucet uses
very different materials such as earth, resin, stone
or bronze, depending on the result she wants
reaches. To outline her artistic démarche,
she uses a sentence from Botticelli: “Through the movements
of the body I want to expose that of the soul.” It
flowing water that conceals the dancer is a symbol
for the time that works inexorably with and against us.
The fountain was inaugurated in 2005 and is made from
bronze and blue stone. The Grace measures 3m.

Roger Leloup, born in Verviers in 1933, is the spiritual father and artist of Yoko Tsuno, the Japanese cartoon character who first appeared in 1970.

The city entrusted the work to the non-profit organization 'Art Mural' from Brussels. That non-profit organization has
About a hundred works were created in our country, including about forty in Brussels.
The technique is special: the enlarged drawing is made on tracing paper pieces of 80 cm by 2m50, perforated with many small holes. The pieces on the wall are painted with a liquid paint. The paint runs through the holes and by removing the tracing paper the drawing becomes visible on the wall. The edges are drawn and the different
colors are applied.

Pont-Aux-Lions
Highlight • Bridge
The street dictionary of MP Léon tells us that the name comes from the fact that the middle of the bridge parapet was originally decorated with stone lions leaning on the arms of Erard de la Marck, prince-bishop from 1506 to 1538.

Fresco X: Acrobats
Highlight • Monument
The first image that stands out is that of 5 silhouettes of women facing each other. These silhouettes with different bodies, colors and hairstyles invite us to see diversity. The shapes are illustrated inside. They stand for women's jobs, women together, disability issues, sisterhood, Marie Mineur, the No Bra movement, violence against women, voting rights, etc.
