A day in the life of the painter Mériadeg Courtet, from the Pont des Arts to the Beaux-Arts in Paris. Mériadeg Courtet opened the biggest Parisian artistic quats during the golden age of this movement, between the 80s and 2000. He still practices raw and uncompromising art and has not calmed down. Far from there. From squats to zones to defend, often interned in psychiatric units, he is perhaps the last dinosaur of punk still active.

Vincent Greby is a French artist who divides his life between Kathmandu and Seoul. While passing through his family home in Gournay, he received a visit from his friend Jonathan Bougard who was returning from Polynesia. They haven't been seen for twenty years. Vincent presents him with some Putali from the Jajarkot district, ex votos of primitive Himalayan art, as well as a large African mask signed Grégoire Massengo, and then some of the paintings which made him known in Asia.

A precocious sculptor, famous at the age of 15, Joachim Badindamana was born in Congo Brazzaville in 1950. He began by working in wood in the style of Muta Mayola and very quickly won a first sculpture prize and then a scholarship. allowing him to study fine arts in Germany. He made his life between Berlin and Dusseldorf in the 1970s and then turned to creating monumental bronzes before returning to Congo at the invitation of President Sassou Ngesso in the early 1980s. Author of monumental bronze sculptures erected in the public squares of Brazzaville from the 1980s, his emblematic works of the Congolese capital disappeared during the events of 1997. The population recovered the bronze to make pots. For Gastineau Massamba, Les Demoiselles de Brazzaville is an important work for the history of contemporary Congolese sculpture.

Gastineau Massamba is a painter, sculptor and poet. It is constantly renewing itself.
