JEAN JACQUES GUYON
JOURNEY TO AFGHANISTAN
“It was at the age of 14 that he took his first steps into the adult world, working on the docks and in a restaurant in Saint-Malo…
His grand voyage “on the route to India” became a true turning point in his life; he then became a free man and a photographer.”
Excerpt from the biography of Jean-Jacques Guyon
Imagine traveling from Munich to Kabul, Europe and Afghanistan (yes, Afghanistan…), in 1974: Jean-Jacques and his crew of friends set off in a Volkswagen Kombi, with a few tools and a good dose of optimism, and off they went!
Needless to say, today this journey is virtually impossible, infinitely dangerous…
Jean-Jacques will share a few anecdotes with us, infused with his trademark biting humor, and present his newly published book. A special appearance at the Frozen Lake Gallery.
