Photographer, writer, painter, filmmaker Alain BERAUD lived with his passions and his art works. Picture has always accompanied the life and career of the artist. Photography, original passion allowed him to capture people, things and civilizations through the many trips he makes for the cinema.

About the world of Art, he wrote a text entitled “Baby Doll’Art” an uncompromising portrait of a world that seems inaccessible to him.
