Exhibition “Esprit & Compagnonnage”
Spirit, are you still here? What remains of the giants of jazz? What remains of those who left their mark on the ever-changing world of this multifaceted music?
Photographer Daniel Peyreplane and painter François Robin offer their answer to this question: an imaginary concert-journey featuring a dream line-up, tracing the path of a jazz that lives on forever. The exhibition “Esprit & Compagnonnage” takes us on a journey in the company of famous musicians, all travelling companions of Miles Davis, through the palimpsest-like works of these two passionate visual artists, unsettling assemblages of photographs and drawings created during concerts that produce strange snapshots, with an intelligence that is anything but artificial, but which draws its source from the very roots of emotion.
