Closeup on Sylvain in the previous picture. Sylvain liked posing. He had something you could find with some models.
Sylvain had several female models posing for him. "Working with a model is very sensual, almost like having sex ..."

 

This picture back in 1983, shot in his studio in Montreuil, just outside Paris. Sylvain posing in front of one of his works. Around 1984 ? Sylvain in his studio. He does not seem to be peacefull on this picture. Sylvain during his first stay in New-York. He was carrying his rolled works in this home made cardboard tube. Back in 1984.
Sylvain during the opening of the xhibition in Tokyo. Back in 1991.

 

Sylvain working in his studio in Paris, 17 rue Poulet, on the work named "Lovin'you for ever".
One can see the projectors I installed, as he needed much precision when finishing these works. Certainly 1990.
