LA JAVA BLEUE
Sunday, September 15, 2024, at 4:30 PM
Before Piaf, there were Mistinguett, Maurice Chevalier, Damia, Jean Gabin, Joséphine Naker…
Blue Java, a tribute to all these forgotten artists, transports us into the tumultuous and extraordinary life of the queen of Paris between the wars: the great FRÉHEL.
From the depths of a gloomy bar, the realistic singer invites us to relive her moments of glory and decline, with the raw language we know her for, through tasty dialogues and anecdotes, choruses that make you laugh or verses that make you cry, including excerpts from old films! A true opportunity to travel into the soul of the French popular song of yesteryear, and never again say, “FRÉHEL? I don’t know who that is…”

Weekend Events on the French Riviera in Antibes
“CHATTERIES” (Cat Cuddles)
The Postcard Museum presents a temporary exhibition of vintage postcards depicting cats.
Domestic animals have often been used to illustrate postcards, with cats being among the most frequent. Photographers and illustrators have provided numerous images, from large cats sleeping on a comfortable pillow to kittens.
These illustrations appear on postcards and wall calendars distributed by postmen. In both cases, these images remain on display for several months (especially for calendars). These naturalistic scenes undeniably possess a calming, even beneficial, effect for the viewer.
Apart from any religious or political motive, the presence of animals that accompany our daily lives has something reassuring about it.

Sportsmen!! Claude Serre
In 2018, the museum proposed a large thematic retrospective from which sports were strangely excluded. It would be a shame to continue without them.
In this Olympic year, 2024 corrects this injustice. Here again is this sarcastic, subversive genius, funny and brilliant as ever. He remains, as the sports world loves to say in terms of records, the humorous artist who has sold the most albums worldwide with his title Black Humor and Men in White. A gold medal, then.
Coluche would have had a good laugh, undoubtedly tossing him a sharp and invigorating “Sportsman!!”
