The magical world of The Little Prince brought to life!
About the exhibition
French visual artist Arnaud Nazare-Aga has worked with Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Youth
Foundation, and together they have designed a unique touring art exhibition of sculptures inspired
by the original watercolor illustrations of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s book, The Little Prince, as
well as photos, manuscripts (手稿) and drawings.
The exhibition will be presented for the very first time in Auckland from 1st June to 25th June,
2023 to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the publication of The Little Prince.
Entitled “The Little Prince in the Dark”, the exhibition attempts to bring Saint-Exupéry’s
illustrations to life in a different way. The artist has created 13 all-white sculptures with relief ( 浮
雕). They are displayed in the dark to be discovered by the senses of touch and hearing. All the
magic, dreams and poetry of Saint-Exupery’s beloved book will thus be revealed in a new way
never imagined before.
What to do
First, start off from the entrance on the first floor to see historical photography describing the great
adventure of the pioneering pilot Latécoère. Then, move up to the second floor, where you can
find rare original manuscripts and drawings by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. After that, climb up to
the third floor to experience the sculptures. Finally, don’t forget to stop off on your way out at the
gift shop right next to the entrance and pick up some Little Prince memorabilia to remember your
visit.
Prices
The exhibition is free for everyone!

B
In 1561, King Philip II of Spain made the decision to move the capital to Madrid, which had
a significant impact on the city’s environment that is still felt today. Some suggest that the move
was motivated by a desire for a healthier environment for his wife, as well as Madrid’s closeness
to the Manzanares River. However, the removal of the surrounding woodlands to support the royal
court exposed the city to severe weather, leading to the saying “nine months of winter and three of
hell”.
Today, Madrid continues to struggle with environmental problems, such as pollution from a
large number of vehicles that enter the city each day. To battle with this issue, Madrid’s city
planners are constructing a 75-kilometer-long Metropolitan Forest, which is one of the most
ambitious initiatives of its kind in Europe. This forest will consist of 1.5 million trees of species
native to Madrid, along with eco-friendly bridges and recreational centers. Additionally, a 23-
kilometer-long Forest Avenue for cyclists and pedestrians will connect the new forest with existing
parks, schools, offices, and the airport. In 20 years, the Metropolitan Forest should be able to
remove more than 800,000 tonnes of CO2 from the city’s atmosphere.
The idea for the forest was born in 2019 when Madrid councilors for urban development
asked the children what kind of Madrid they would like to see in 2040. The dominating response
was a “green city,” which motivated the city council to plan seriously. The city council has been
aware of Madrid’s environmental problems since the 1990s, but it wasn’t until 2019, when a
survey revealed that over 40 percent of the citizens cited the environment as the city’s number one
problem that they decided to take action.
The Metropolitan Forest project represents a significant investment in Madrid’s future,
demonstrating how a willingness to listen to the next generation’s ideas and the public’s concerns
can lead to positive change.
24. What was the consequence of King Philip II’s decision?
A. Water shortage. B. His wife’s better health.
C. Sufficient wood supply. D. Worsened climate.
25. What is the expected outcome of the Metropolitan Forest plan?
A. More automatic public service systems.
B. Wider spread of tree species unique to Madrid.
C. Greener transportation and cleaner atmosphere.
D. More investment and advanced city management.
26. What stimulated the idea for the Metropolitan Forest?
A. The proposal of Madrid’s city planners.
B. Madrid’s urgent need for urban development.
C. Younger generation’s vision of future Madrid.
D. The result of a survey among Madrid’s councilors.
27. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To call on Madrid’s citizens to go green.
B. To introduce an eco-friendly initiative of Madrid.
