Josse De Pauw


Last Sunday evening was a real treat, I had the opportunity to see a master at work:  hear Josse De Pauw read from Russian author Venedikt Jerovejev. 
De Pauw is an actor,  an author, a columnist, a film director, a remarkable artist.
And I am a fan!
About a year ago, I was very impressed by the way he portrayed the consul character in Malcolm Lowry's "Under the Volcano" in the beautiful Bourla theater in Antwerp. 
But to see him at work in a smaller setting was kind of special. Even though I was still just a bit too far away to get a great photo, I think this picture shows the concentration of the performer and the strength of his presence on the podium.

    Great guy... but literature is way too difficult for me!

    Anni, non conosco questo attore e quindi non posso giudicare. In compenso la tua foto presa da lontano gli ha creato come un alone attorno alla testa che dà interesse allo scatto. Buona serata.

    Somehow the blur adds to the drama of this photograph. Well done!
