EXHIBITIONS
The series of exhibitions of our pictures, Frank Neisse and I, on "Separation Walls" began in 2008, in Geneva, at the International Red Cross Museum and at the Armenian Heritage Center in Valence. In November 2009, the French Institute in Berlin organized a exhibition during the festivities of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, and a Latin American tour was co-organized by the French Alliances in Bogota, Panama City, Mexico City, and Tijuana, and by the Red Alma Mater University in Bogota. These exhibitions led to a partnership with the French Alliance Foundation that help organized numerous exhibitions around the world. Several exhibitions have also since then been organized in French cultural centers (Sofia, Mexico, Amman, Mainz, Niamey, Vienna, Innsbruck) or foreign universities (Liege, Bogota, Pereira, Panama City) in 2009 and 2010. New ones have been organized in 2011 and 2012: Czech Republic, Greece, South Korea, India, Kenya, Colombia, Haiti, Singapore, Dubai, Ethiopia. In 2013, the Founders’ Gallery of Calgary organized a 90-pictures exhibition. In 2014-2015, exhibitions were held in Argentina, Canada, Peru, Spain and Ukraine. In 2016-2017, new exhibitions were held in Zagreb and in Belgium. In February 2018, an exhibition was held at the French Institute in Bamako in the context of the "Semaine littéraire du Mali". In 2018-2019, a number of exhibitions were held in Belgium, with the latest at the Galerie Huberty & Breynes in Brussels.
