Olivier Lavigne was born in Arles in 1977. After studying plastic arts and writing his thesis called “L’Humour”, an alternative to the spectacular, he turned to graphic design and illustration. Today, he’s living in a small village in the Ardèche mountains, and does not despair of one day encountering the trace of a lost bear. Rémy Marion has been exploring the Arctic since the 1980s. Speaker, photographer, director, writer, organizer of international symposia and member of the Société de Géographie and the Société des explorateurs français, he has published two books in the collection “Mondes Sauvages”.

Exposition

 

L’OURS, a small humorous treatise for humans, Illustrations by Olivier Lavigne and text by Rémy Marion. The aim is to present double pages from the book that was published by Actes sud in spring 2023, depicting the relationship between man and bear in an original way, a new way of communicating with a wider audience than naturalists, in order to understand the interactions that have existed between man and bear since the dawn of time.
