For more than twenty years, Gérard Rondeau has photographed many personalities, most often for the newspaper Le Monde: Alain Cavalier, Louis-René des Forêts, Eric Clapton, Charlotte Perriand, Christian Lacroix, George Steiner, Paul Bowles in Tangier, Frank Stella, Keith Haring, Louise Bourgeois and Roy Lichtenstein in New York, Antoni Tapies in Barcelona, George Baselitz in his castle in Germany, Jean-Paul Riopelle in his house in Quebec or Paul Rebeyrolle in his workshop in Burgundy. Chronicles of a portraitist mixes photographs and stories of encounters. Posed portraits, images and offbeat graphics follow one another: Gérard Rondeau offers us an unexpected and very personal journey to the land of intellectuals.
