Paris chronicle # 35 On the terrace of Georges Pompidou Center

Here is one of the famous flower pots of the artist Jean-Pierre Raynaud who had a degree in horticulture in his youth, on the terrace, only smokers contemplate the landscape; indoors, this sleeping woman has seen the exhibition “dancing your  life,” magnificent exploration of the dialogue between the modern and contemporary dance and visual arts.

Voici l’un des fameux pots de fleur de l’artiste Jean-Pierre Raynaud qui eut un diplôme d’horticulture dans sa jeunesse, sur la terrasse, seuls les fumeurs contemplent le paysage, à l’intérieur, cette femme endormie a vu l’exposition « Danser sa vie », magnifique exploration du dialogue entre la danse moderne et  contemporaine et les arts visuels.

By a photo editor's decision the unidentified man on the right is to be given one-half of a column for some news story. The photograph is used compliments from Seafair, and was copied from their archives long ago. Like the Bob Hope snaps printed earlier this one dates from 1962 . . . I assume.

"If I could be like Bing forever I would sing, ba-ba-ba-boom . . .ba-ba-ba-boom."
