St-Tropez Shopping

  1. Atelier Ivan Hov

    Origami sailing boats are the forte of Hungarian-born artist Ivan Hov who fled Budapest for Paris in 1956 and studied art in the capital before moving to St-Tropez in 1968. Today, it is hundreds of tableaux - monumental to minuscule in size and featuring at least one (but invariably thousands) of his signature paper boats - that reflect his life. View them (or buy them - his works range from a pint-sized pice to a wall-sized work) at his twinset of workshops.
