Mon petit Matisse

Vovô Dembo é um africano muito alto e muito sábio. Para o pequeno Chaka, ele tem o tamanho do baobá - árvore que alcança vinte metros de altura - e a sabedoria dos marabus - sacerdotes venerados pela religião muçulmana. É vovô Dembo quem conta ao neto Chaka a história da África, da sua África: a infância pobre numa família de catorze irmãos, o pastoreio das cabras, as pescarias no rio barrento, as festas, as comidas, as plantações de amendoim e batata-doce. Com pinceladas sensíveis, um verbo saboroso e poético, vovô Dembo fala dos espíritos que se escondem na selva entre os macacos e os elefantes, narra a chegada da chuva, quando os pingos enormes batem na terra esturricada e a tempestade é um bálsamo que revigora a vida.Chaka logo percebe que vovô Dembo, com sua imaginação entre o plausível e o mágico, faz um retrato em que se sobrepõem duas histórias, a dele mesmo e a do continente mais antigo e mais pobre do planeta. A África, meu pequeno Chaka.... reata com a tradição africana do contador de histórias, figura central de um mundo sem livros e sem escolas, e a quem cabe transmitir a saga da família, da aldeia, de seu povo, fundindo a memória pessoal com a coletiva. As delicadas ilustrações de Marion Lesage alternam-se com a reprodução de objetos tradicionais da África, instrumentos de música e estatuetas, e o texto de Marie Sellier transmite um olhar inteligente e mágico sobre o continente africano.

L'afrique, Petit Chaka..

Depuis que Cupidon, le dieu de l'Amour, a perdu son arc et ses flèches, un grand vent de folie souffle sur la terre. Ça ne fait pas rire Jupiter, le roi des dieux : Cupidon doit coûte que coûte rétablir l'ordre amoureux !

Zadkine : Des mains pour créer

The book you are holding is out of the ordinary. Art book or a clinical manual for psychiatry describing bipolarity, it is both of these and neither at the same time. Bipolar disorder or manic-depressive illness is a mood disorder by which persons are afflicted in cyclic episodes. During these episodes, the patients' affects, thoughts and motor activity are modified in every area of their mental and relational life. An illness of extremes in mania and depression, bipolar disorder deeply changes, for the patients, their immediate experience. The aim of his work is to describe some of these experiences. Its originality is to attempt to do so by using art works as a mediator, in themselves and independently from the mental life of the artists who created them. Readers are thus solicited by the text, of course, which attempts to help them understand the patients' mental world, but also by the emotions they will be made to feel by the works that are presented. These are therefore not direct illustrations of the patients' psychological states: they help to perceive them as a whole, from both a sensitive and an intellectual point of view. A psychiatrist and two art specialists joined to provide this dual view on the subjective experience of a patient. The emotion inspired by the works reproduced and commented on her will enable clinicians to gain a better understanding of the mental life of their patients. Patients will also be able to understand part of their experience of the disorder, as reflected in the works. Finally, this book, as beautiful as it is educational, is not exclusively reserved for psychiatrists and patients. It proposes a double reading, sensitive and scholarly, in a text that is accessible to the broadest audience. The patients' familiar circles and art amateurs will discover in it both a fine analysis and a singular view on mental life and on a number of works of art.
