WE WALK AND TALK FOR SEVERAL HOURS.



FROM DALTON MARKET TO HACKNEY GALLERIES AND GREEN PARKS.

WE SEE HUNDREDS OF WOMEN IN BLACK CLOTHES ONLY SHOWING THEIR EYES. BETHNAL GREEN MULTICULTURAL.
STREETS FULL OF FRUITSHOPS. 
WE END IN BRICK LANE IN THE CLASSIC 24H BAGEL SHOP 
AND HAVE COFFEE YET AGAIN AT CULT CINEMA VIDEOCLUB.

WE TALK MOSTLY ABOUT GOROS ART AND HIS UPCOMING SHOWS. 
SOCIOPLASTICS.

IM INTERESTED IN THE CURRENT BOND OF JAPANESE ART 
TO THE INTERNATIONAL ART SCENE. 

THE CONVERSATION IS LONG AND JUICY. 

I RESPECT A OT THE WORKS OF OÉ, KITANO, TANGE AND KAWARA, 
A WIDE ART TASTE, 
FROM CINEMA TO LITERATURE, 
FROM ARCHITECTURE TO CONCEPTUAL ART. 

IN THE CONVERSATION WITH GORO, 
I RECALL THE WORK OF FERNAND LÉGER, 
ONE OF MY FRENCH MASTERS, IN THE USE OF LINE DEFINITION 
AND SPECIALLY THE FREE POSITION OF COLOR, AWAY FROM FIGURE. 
A BIG JUMP I LOVE.








AN ANONOYMOUS WOMAN ASKS US IF SHE CAN PICTURE US. 
MAY I ? SURE. 
SHE SENDS ME THE PHOTO NEXT DAY. 
VERY KIND.


WE LIKE TO LAUGH AND TO BE PORTRAITED, 

SOMETIMES.
