High-profile launch of the exhibition in São Paulo

Forming ties, celebrating universality and coming together were the key themes of this gala evening to launch the exhibition devoted to the Little Prince and Saint-Exupéry.

 

Among the famous local figures present was former President Fernando Henrique Cardoso. François d’Agay, nephew and godson of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry and President of the Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Youth Foundation, gave a speech in which he said he sensed the presence of his uncle and of the Little Prince.

 

onica, wife of the Governor of São Paulo and a dedicated patroness of charities and voluntary associations, toured the exhibition with François d’Agay, who showed her his uncle’s wedding photo and pointed out the page-boy – none other than himself.

 

On the top floor of the exhibition, on a life-sized reproduction of asteroid B-612, actress Luana Piovani (mentioned in one of our previous dispatches) extended a friendly welcome to the representatives of the Saint-Exupéry estate and of the Little Prince in Brazil. The exhibition has so far attracted over 5,000 visitors
