​Enjoy!

Philippe Ratton & Daniel Hourde' Fang Exhibit 2006

(OPENING NIGHT)  
Philippe Ratton & Daniel Hourde' Fang Exhibit 2006.  A sea of people holding champaign glasses obstruct traffic on Rue Bonaparte and Rue des Beaux-Arts!


Picture
(Opening Night)  
Philippe Ratton & Daniel Hourde' Fang Exhibit 2006.  This was a "tour de force" exhibit of Fang Byeri figures, sourced from their important clients, that can NEVER be duplicated in its scale and splendor ever again.

(Parcours des Mondes 2012?) rue de Seine as a girl on a scooter runs over the foot of an African runner.

Picture
(Parcours des Mondes 2016)  A crowded Saturday on rue de Seine.  This model in spacey outfit was associated with an exhibit by Galerie Vallois as I recall.  

Picture
(Exterior Galerie Meyer 2013?)  Michael Auliso next to a Maori Artist with full moko tattooing who was collaborating with Anthony Meyer

Picture
(Parcours des Mondes 2015)  Alex Arthur and Thomas Murray (right) outside his gallery on Rue des Beaux-Arts.
​
Picture
(Parcours des Mondes 2009?)  Joris Visser outside his gallery on rue Guenegaud.  Later that day Joris caught a thief stealing a piece.   He chased him down and held him on rue Jacques Callot before the guy broke free and ran off.  It was high drama.
​
Picture
(Parcours des Mondes 2012?)  Interior Michael Hamson's gallery.  Sam Singer posing next to New Guinea mask.  A possibly resemblance?
​

Picture
(Parcours des Mondes 2013? ) Brussels dealer Alain Guisson (RIP) (left) with his colleague (darn, forget his name).
​
Picture
(Parcours des Mondes 2009?)  John Giltsoff (RIP) and his wife outside their gallery.  He would never permit me to take any photos inside his galleries and was fearful of internet exposure.  John is surely missed and so is his excellent taste.  He would do the most amazingly accurate "voice impressions" of all the most flamboyant people in the art world!

Picture
(Parcours des Mondes 2010)  Michael Auliso, with bad hair (center).  A French security agent clears a requested photo with French President Jacques Chirac as he exists Galerie Christian Deydier on rue de Seine.  I was surprised he only had one agent with him who was also his driver!  After all, I was an unknown variable and so were the contents of my bag.

(Parcours des Mondes 2006)  Opening night of Kevin Conru's Oceanic Shield Exhibition.  John Friede standing in the entrance.  Kirby Lewis is sitting on the curb.  I still remember the charged excitement and anticipation of this exhibit!
​
Picture
(Parcours des Mondes 2006)  Opening night of Kevin Conru's Oceanic Shield Exhibition.    Conru (left) talking to Kirby Lewis who is surely missed in the business.   Kirby no longer sells "wood" but sell alcohol spirits instead.  In hindsight probably a brilliant and timely transition.

Picture
(Parcours des Mondes 2015) The tin can zombie aliens just landed.   Clank.. clank-- bang... bang.  Part of a mobile art exhibit by Galerie Vallois that I never quite understood.   

Picture
(Parcours des Mondes 2015) The tin can zombies coming out to dance again in front of La Palette.  A creation of Galerie Vallois.
