On September 1 and 2, I was in Mohon, for the second edition of « Le Hangar », a party led by Jacques-Yves Lafontaine and Cécile Pelletier. In this undertaking they were supported by a band volunteers, neighbors and friends, as devoted as they were competent! I was there to take advantage of the presence of many astonishing and talented artists, long-time friends, and also to take some pictures of the festival….
Between 11 and 16 August 2017, in response to the invitation of Arno Methivier, I was present at the festival of the Duits, in Orléans. I played acoustic solo bandoneon, Toco la Toccata and made some improvisations with my friends. When Arno want to describe this event, he says : “La fête des duits” is a multi artistic evenement that takes place on a island of the river Loire and around,…
If you have not seen this show yet, run to see it! It’s beautiful, it’s funny, it’s virtuoso! Here are some pictures taken during two consecutive evenings, the first was somewhat curtailed by the rain and the second was totally masterful! Thanks OPUS
I gather here photos gleaned during some parties. Dance, barbecue by the sea… Come back from time to time, there will be new ones.
Dear visitors, Welcome to my new website. This website has a white background that contrasts radically with the black of the previous one. Black which in a certain way corresponded to a period of my creative life, but that it was time to change for a lighter aesthetic probably enhancing my visual productions.

Last May, I played at the Ex-Île Festival. So I had the chance to spend the weekend with the volunteers, the artists and the public. Here I give a very small series of photos (absolutely not représentative of the whole festival).
On May 12, 13, 14 and 15, I play at Lanvéoc (29) in the l’Ex-Île Festival. The team of this festival is not in its first experience because, 2 years ago, they organized the Criée in Penmarc’h and last year, Le Lac in Commana. Is it necessary to say that they know how to put in place strong artistic actions in exceptional spaces. Below, find some pictures that I could make last year…
I should even say: a very modest participation! Anyway, I actually play the bandoneon in one of the scenes of Cessez-le-feu, the first Emmanuel Courcol’s movie. This film is about the post-war period 14-18 and the difficulty for the combatants to regain a normal life. It is a very sensible film led by excellent actors: Romain Duris, Céline Sallette, Grégory Gadebois, Julie-Marie Parmentier, Maryvonne Schiltz and Wabinlé Nabié.
