Every first Thursday of the month, the MAH invites you to explore graphic arts pop-ups at the GamMAH. You’ll unearth hidden gems from the collection, including prints, drawings, and rare books. An art historian will guide you through antique volumes, historic catalogs, artist books, and unique book-objects, showcasing remarkable formal and technical creativity.
After briefly pursuing medical studies, Cédric Sapin-Defour became a physical education teacher. Driven by a love of words and exploration literature, he has written for publications such as Libération and Alpes Magazine, as well as books including Gravir les montagnes est une affaire de style (Guérin, 2017), Espresso (Guérin, 2019), and L’art de la trace (Transboréal, 2020).
His deep bond with his Bernese Mountain Dog inspired His Scent After the Rain (Son odeur après la pluie, Stock, 2023), a massive success with over a million readers, eighteen translations, and adaptations in progress for film, graphic novel (Le Lombard, 2025), and theater.
His powerful new book, Where the Stars Fall (Où les étoiles tombent, Stock, 2025), tells the moving story of the paragliding accident that changed his wife’s life—and her brave path to recovery.
