...saturday 19th January, aged 87, in her Parisian apartment.

"I have lived moments full of joy, I have met during the post-war period many people and artists like Beckett and Louise Bourgeois among the opthers. I had regrets, I was often afraid. I had a taste for the others, I was always looking for their radiance. The winsdom makes me acept gifts, I lose less time than refusing them....and you know that Jean-Michel Franck, whose furniture I have re-edited, was Anne Franck uncle? One must remeber things!..."

Andrée Putman funerals (1925-2013) will take place the 23th of January 2013 at Saint-Germain-des-Prés Church in Paris.
