If the work of Anne-Marie Filaire is above all a testimony of her presence in countries where conflicts and revolutions take place, she chose to show here intimate images. This notebook indicates moments of his family life and Paris between his various trips. The emphasis is on the need to move away to create. These intimate images point to the round trips, the absences, and the presence with his family and define his biography.
