It so happened that a man walked into my show at the gallery in Arles this summer, unhurriedly looked at my work, and stroke a casual conversation. He had rather an unorthodox way of dressing up. A black knitted bell shaped tunic ending below the knees, black knitted sailor like brimless cap and black Converse low-tops. He commanded an attention. His name was Wilson Balda. After few days of conversation about art and culture, while seeping coffee in a town bustling with activity around Les Rencontres d’Arles, he casually dropped an invitation to host me in his internet based TV channel next time I’m in Paris. Well, the timing was perfect I was planning to attend the Fotofever art fair in November.
Please join me in a live broadcast from Corcoran’s Irish Pub Les Lilas on October 28th. It will be a lot of fun!
