A l'Orangerie des Tuileries devant les "Décorations"

Christian Bouillette, Jean Gabriel Nordmann, Fabrice Roy

Welcome to the world of my conferences !

I invite you to take a leap in time to visit the French 19th century: industrial revolution, impressionism, universal exhibitions, travels, artists with incredible destinies...

17 lectures on Impressionism and its time, permanently enriched with new subjects...

Poetic, close to the theatre, sometimes surprising, my lectures draw the public into the universe of these incredible characters through the deep trace that their lives leave us as a legacy: Claude Monet, Edouard Manet, Berthe Morisot, Camille Pissarro, Gustave Caillebotte, Edgar Degas, Auguste Renoir, Gustave Eiffel, Henri de Maupassant, Alexandre Dumas, Emile Zola and so many others come to life through the magic of words, gestures, images...
