Exhibition “Brel, Piaf, Hallyday, Mes Étoiles de Vie” by Bernard Laboureau
“Don’t leave me”, “Non rien de rien”, “Marie” are songs that have accompanied my life journey. When the night took hold of my anxieties, my soul rocked to the rhythm of the songs of Edith, Jacques, and Johnny.
Closing my eyes, my imagination opened its doors, turning me into “Jeff,” “Milord” in love with “Gabrielle.” This exhibition is a thank you, a tribute to what they gave me. Thanks to Édith, Jacques, and Johnny. Bernard Laboureau.

Exhibition: I stay with you
On the occasion of the sixtieth anniversary of the death of Jean Cocteau, the museum he conceived as a testimony to his art is returning to its historical setting.
Jean Cocteau died on October 11, 1963, leaving behind a work as rich as it is incredibly varied. The question of his posterity and the future of his art was one of the artist’s main concerns in his last years of life, and Menton provided the solution by offering him the Bastion to set up his museum. In this showcase, decorated by Cocteau himself, he wanted to exhibit some of the most emblematic works of his dazzling career: colorful pastels, monumental tapestries, surprising paintings, and bold ceramics make up the original collection of this true testament museum… Not forgetting the famous series of “Lovers,” drawings that perfectly embody the Mediterranean inspiration of the artist. Sixty years after the death of the Prince of Poets, the Musée Jean Cocteau-le Bastion has returned to exhibit his historical work, paying a vibrant tribute to his guardian artist, adopting the words he wanted to be engraved on his tombstone: “Je reste avec vous” (“I stay with you”).
Location: Musée Jean Cocteau—le Bastion, Quai Napoléon III Info and Reservations: 04 89 81 52
