(Q - ??: shares the said COSA AUTRA)
MB : oh yes, this thing is long. So, I read it. [silence] Is that the answer??? No, I'm dreaming. Oh name of God! [silence] Do you know how we say it in Franche-Compté? "In the name of God, the beautiful church and no priest to put in it." Oh good God. He's a madit, I didn't know him but I'm delighted to know him. That’s a damn historic one! oh oh oh oh oh! Oh no, it's incredible! Now that I have read it, for me, it will be known too! But, it's incredible! It's incredible ! It's incredible ! I am amazed to see to what extent the character of Max Valentin, I like talking about Max Valentin because I make an absolute distinction between him and Régis Hauser. The character Max Valentin, that is to say this anonymous, masked character, deus es machina from the game of the golden owl, this character literally fagociated me. He made everything I could put into my paintings his own. I'm stunned to see it because I didn't experience it in real time. I discovered it after the fact so it obviously strikes me as funny. If I experienced it in real time perhaps I would have tried and possibly succeeded in stopping the process. But this is not the case. It's crazy. This is completely crazy. I'm laughing because I'm amazed to see what he was able to elucubate, I don't say elaborate, I say "lucubrate" on the basis of my tables. It's impressive.
