François Meyer was awakened very early on to the appeal of contemporary art; his father was a great collector. Even as a child, Meyer would accompany his father to art galleries and auctions. Meyer began his photography career at world-renowned Swiss photographers Boissonas. Here, he developed a love of photography, portraiture in particular, and has, over the years, gone on to photograph some of the world's best-known and best-loved artists. Included in this stunning book are portraits of Max Bill, Fernando Botero, Francesco Clemente, Sonia Delaunay, Helen Frankenthaler, April Gornik, David Hockney, JonOne, Wilfredo Lam, Roy Lichtenstein, Marilyn Minter, Beverley Pepper, Pierre & Giles, Kurt Sonderborg, Andy Warhol, and Yan Pei-Ming to name just a few. This book tells the story of the forty-year career of a passionate art collector and photographer. Text in English and French.

Presents unqiue portraits of many of the world's most influential artists.
Une longue suite de succès, de charges et d'honneurs (Prix Nobel en 1928) ont jalonné la vie de Bergson ; son influence fut considérable. Et pourtant, nombreux furent ses adversaires ; l'Église elle-même condamna la philosophie moderniste. Sans doute, comme toute doctrine nouvelle, le Bergsonisme fut-il mal interprété, mal compris, peut-être même déformé par ses détracteurs. Ce livre veut faire comprendre ce que représentait, au début du siècle, cette sorte de spiritualisme concret qui écartait tout ensemble trois des plus gros piliers de la philosophie traditionnelle : l'empirisme, le rationalisme et le relativisme.
