They are named Jeany, Jean-Paul, Marie-Alice, Nicole, Ginette, Titi, Bernie, Coco, Brigitte, Daniel, Ryad. They have the age of the heart, which is not counted in decades but in ever-renewing springs. They are the heroes of Letizia Le Fur, the guest of the 9th residency in Vichy. With the Vichy checkered pattern as a backdrop, this artist, who works her photographic palette like a painter, has crisscrossed the city and portrayed joyful seniors. In front of her lens, they have unleashed their imagination, donning the brightly colored attire of a virtuoso pianist or a femme fatale, a dancer or a dandy. Through their eccentricity, they even bring life back to the places they inhabit: the opera, the thermal baths, the church, the cultural center… Convinced that “Happiness supplants old age” (Franz Kafka), Letizia Le Fur has redefined the boundaries of a whimsical world where the lightness of living is expressed, year after year.
