Boby Lapointe’s centenary: in Pézenas, in the footsteps of an eternal juggler of words

He had ups and downs. Ups when he put antennas on the roofs, downs when he worked as a scuba diver. Thus Boby Lapointe, he mischievously summed up his life. Puns, allegories, metaphors, alliterations… The artist, born a hundred years ago and died at the age of 50 of cancer, laughed at everything, at nothing. Concocted songs for the minots (“the Fish Mom”), love tunes on heady melodies (“Your Katie left you”).
