Multiple examples represent a kind of alter ego for myself, hence the title "Los…

“Paris by night” intensifies the city. On March 1, 1978, Fabrice Emaer inaugurated Le Palace with a memorable performance by singer Grace Jones, directed by photographer and director Jean-Paul Goude. The former music hall, now open to the diversity of sexualities and backgrounds, became a hotspot for Parisian nightlife.
