Karen Black

This photographic print bearing an autograph of the celebrity is unique. It comes directly from Gérard Fouquet's personal collection.
The photographer's stamp is affixed to the back of the print.

Gérard Fouquet photographed celebrities from the world of arts and entertainment from the end of the 1970s, and this for several decades. In the company of his wife, they have done important work, combined with their passion - and armed with patience - by meeting their "stars" and obtaining "the image". They thus immortalized actresses and actors of the 7th art of American and French cinema, from Paris to Deauville via the Cannes Film Festival, in sometimes unprecedented moments. The shot taken, the photographer had the print developed and returned to see the personality to ask for his "autograph" signature. Thus, for years, the couple collected hundreds of black and white or color silver prints, some personalities dedicating the photograph to them personally. An important collection was then constituted.
