L’héritage Samivel

Not in competition

Summary

Luce Gayet, Samivel’s granddaughter, follows in her grandfather’s footsteps to honor the memory of a multifaceted artist: painter, illustrator, writer, filmmaker, mountaineer, explorer…

Today, Samivel’s name is little known, but his work continues to echo from the peaks: an artist’s legacy -his watercolours and posters are still very much part of today’s mountain art. Also very much an activist- he was a pioneer in highlighting ecological problems and was a prominent advocate for the protection of our mountain environments.
