Le Comptoir Général, Paris

Virginie, my former roommate and colleague and my wonderful host in Paris this week. At the Comptoir General. Day 202.
After seven years I finally got a chance to travel again, and I went to Paris! My dad always drew his postcards by himself and I thought, it would be great to continue this tradition. :)
My favorite motive was ‘Jardin Kahn’, especially the japanese part. Really lovely parc, even when it´s raining. So, if you have the chance, go there, you will like it! I also did two drawings of ‘le comptoir general’. The place was so fascinating and really really relaxing, especially after three days of “Tourist Paris”. I also bought a pair of shoes in the ghetto museum there. They are beautiful and I love them! The other postcards are way more touristic: Eiffel Tower, view out of my hotel room (Malakoff) and the ‘Seine’. All of the postcards are already sent to my friends and family. BUUUT, I also went to the ‘Anti Café’, where you get free drinks, food, internet, scanner(!) and other entertaining stuff, the only thing you need to do is paying for your stay there. (4 € per hour. Fucking worth it!) And scanned my stuff there! Overall it was an awesome trip and I am a little sad it´s already over. Paris ftw!
Projection du documentaire You Can Touch My Hair | Mercredi 2 juillet 2014 à partir de 19h au Comptoir Général
Un'ruly célèbre et explore la santé, la diversité et la beauté des cheveux de la femme noire.
A l’occasion du lancement officiel d’Un’ruly en France, une projection du documentaire You Can Touch My Hair (sous-titrés en français).
Antonia Opiah, fondatrice du blog Un'ruly, avait organisé un événement rassemblant un groupe de femmes invitant les passant dans l'Union Square Park (New York City) à toucher leurs cheveux.
L'expérience avait donné lieu à un large éventail d'opinions, de débats houleux et, finalement, à un court-métrage présenté par Un-Ruly en partenariat avec Pantene Pro-V permettant de documenter tout cela.
La projection de ce court-métrage sera orgnisée le 2 juillet 2014 à partir de 19h00 au Comptoir Général.
Celle-ci sera suivie d’une discussion-débat relative à la perception actuelle des cheveux noirs animée par un panel composé notamment de Clarisse Libene (fondatrice de Bellebène), Lori L. Tharps (co-auteur du livre Hair Story : Untangling the Roots of Black Hair in America), Kelly Massol (fondatrice des Secrets de Loly) et d’autres intervenants.
