Brooklyn Vulture Painting Exhibition

Exposition de peintures de vautours à Brooklyn

Following the success of our exhibition of paintings on vultures in our Cotignac workshop, and the interest of our visitors in this little-known bird, Colleen Moritz will exhibit on this same theme in Brooklyn, NYC (December 15, 2023)

A recent publication in the New York Times on the importance of the conservation of the vulture in the world, allows him to support, through his passion and his talent, his admiration for this animal by exhibiting his works.

If you like art, head to the Red Hook neighborhood in Brooklyn This district is a former industrial port and it attracts more and more young artists. It’s an ideal place for gallery, contemporary art and photography enthusiasts.

Do not hesitate to visit her if you are passing through New York, she will convince you of the beauty of this unloved place.

If you don’t have the chance to see the exhibition of vulture paintings in Brooklyn, you can also find a virtual gallery of his works on our Paco Como website.

Publication of my photos by the WWF

The tigers of Bardia Nepal are making the buzz on the net….

New publication discovered on the net, article of the WWF, illustrated by 2 of my photos of tigers.

How many souvenirs to remember this unforgettable moment of life…

I had the opportunity to observe the bengal tiger several times in its natural environment, in this marvelous national park. But, this day when 2 young tigers ran past my lens to catch up with their mother will forever be my best observation of this mythical feline.

Memories of our trip to Kgalagadi

In 2019, we were finally able to carry out our adventure in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, on the South African side. This international park, which includes Namibia, Botswana and South Africa is located in the far north west of South Africa over 1200 kilometers from our regular home base in Kruger National Park. We had been dreaming of this trip for a few years, and we were able to put it in place thanks to the camping trailer borrowed from a friend who can travel on off-road tracks. Distant of more than 250 kilometers from the first city, a very particular organization was necessary for this stay of 2 months and a half, in order to explore in depth all the different biotopes and hope to discover all the fauna of this arid land partly desert. .

Eight thousand photographic shots later, you will soon be able to discover the best of them on our website.

We talk about us….

Studio Paco Como Cotignac

Cotignac mon village de france, facebook community, honors us with a video on our gallery.

Here is the video of the PACO COMO art gallery, an American artist, painter who likes to photograph… A French photographer who likes to paint…

The mixture of these two arts gives you a magical place where intimacy and workshop mix.

Colleen, and Patrice, very sensitive to the wild animals of Africa and particularly to the fate reserved for bonobos, like all antithropoid monkeys, the bonobo, is a species particularly threatened because of its exclusive distribution in a region ravaged by the wars to which it add deforestation, diamond mining and hunting for its meat.

Populations have declined drastically over the past 30 years.

Many associations exist to help this massacre, in order to warn public opinion…

Take advantage of your visit to Cotignac to visit the workshop.
