André Sas
Billie Holiday at the Olympia

1958

About the Item

A few days after the death of my father, André Sas, in 2020, I received numerous very moving testimonies full of praise for him from the from his former colleagues and partners in the profession “offering me to help me promote the photographic heritage left by my father.” I was speechless. I realized - perhaps belatedly - the immensity of the inheritance and the work that I recovered. In all modesty, I also understood the artistic value of these archives and the importance of continuing to support. A France which rebuilt, and who enjoys a newfound freedom. Today, it is with great joy and emotion that we share with you this generous work full of life, reflection of a key moment of French society in the 20th century. Philippe Sas

Brigitte Bardot in her apartment in Paris, by André SAS. Print on pigment fine art print, and signed on the back by the rights-owner, Philippe SAS. This picture is part of the "Hommage à André SAS" exhibition, in our gallery, in Paris. "Quelques jours après le décès de mon père, André Sas, en 2020, j'ai reçu de nombreux témoignages très émouvants et plein d'éloges à son égard de la part de ses anciens collègues et partenaires de la profession « me proposant de m'aider à valoriser le patrimoine photographique laissé par mon père ». Je restais sans voix. J’ai réalisé - peut-être tardivement - l'immensité de l'héritage et de l'oeuvre que je récupérais. En toute modestie, j’ai également compris la valeur artistique de ces archives et l'importance de continuer à les faire vivre. C'est dans cet esprit que nous avons décidé avec mes fils, Julien et Nicolas, d'organiser cette exposition-hommage, réunissant certaines des plus belles photos prises par mon père. Parmi les centaines d'images, nous avons choisi de privilégier aujourd’hui les portraits de célébrités (Édith Piaf, Brigitte Bardot, Salvador Dalí, le Général de Gaulle, J.F. Kennedy, ou bien encore le Pape...) sans oublier pour autant ses reportages sur le terrain...
