Fan or not fan of Anne Pigalle, some seriously strange stuff is happening out there on the net…
To make a long story short : it appears that certain individuals are trying to crush me by pretending I have never done anything after1985 to obviously suit their purpose…
IE every abuse towards my work is allowed and excused, even if it’s a lie.
Now for the ignorant or the simply curious, I come from Paris for starters, have existed and created before and after the ZTT period, and much has happened pre and since;
One of the reason I left ZTT records was because, having always performed live, most of my audience and myself decided that , really, that my songs sounded better live; I did like the ZTT record ( they are my songs after all ) but everybody agreed, it was a tad “overproduced”.
After exiting this situation and after the success of the Cafe de Paris, I was offered to produce songs for commercials in Japan, still travelled and toured the world, moved to LA where the great Donald Cammell wanted to direct my film; unfortunatly he died, and not being a “business whore” I could not think of anyone else I wanted to work with; the idea of this screenplay has been reworked, and is still very much alive.
I came back to England, have never ever stopped touring Europe and the world ( they are infos on this site to prove it ), and started a successful career as an artist; I kept performing , and from as far back as 1997, my erotic poetry was included in my repertoire; the audiences were shocked at first and then, everybody followed and still is…
My AMEROTICA album is produced by a fine artist who is the descendant of an extremely influencial group of artists who changed the face of the art world ( but more of that later ) and L’AME EROTIQUE is an intimate collection of my Ame Erotic Poems, this came out in 2010 and 2011 but has been performed from way back live, a lot on the London scene and elsewhere, as well as performed at my very successful art show in 2006 at the Michael Hoppen Gallery ( One of the worlds leading photographers gallery ) and was nominated 4th best show in The Times…The self portraits Polaroids photographed ( often painted ) reflected my emotional situation at the time, I made sets, costumes and masks for them, they were little scenes of a made up sacred sexual bordello reflecting a woman identity toward her lover. The show was extended due to its success, , and renown collectors bought some pieces.
There is plenty of documented informations on this site and on the internet and I will reveal my long artistic journey in due course, but, a few facts and dates needed to be straightened,
Yours faithfully and only … Last Chanteuse
Anne Pigalle
