"L'année "France-Japon" au eu lieu en 1998.
A cette occasion je fus l'invité d'honneur d'une très grande exposition franco-japonaise à Tokyo.
Ma femme m'accompagnait et nous fûmes reçus comme des princes.
Les japonais ont un amour sans borne pour la peinture française et savent recevoir leurs hôtes comme personne.
Après cinq jours de réceptions et de festivités, nous pûmes nous évader deux jours.
Nous voulions connaitre Hiroshima que je souhaitais peindre.
Nous avons naturellement visité le musée. Ce fut pour nous une grande surprise: au milieu d'un parc spendide, un bâtiment très sobre ne contenant que quelques dates et quelques photos: "Hiroshima, le 6 août 1945", "un champignon dans le ciel", "Hiroshima le lendemain", "un cheval noir irradié d'un côté, devenu blanc"
Aucune photo insoutenable, aucune photo atroce.
La dignité du lieu donnait envie de pleurer. TOUTE LA DIGNITE DU PEUPLE JAPONAIS ETAIT LA, grande et sereine.
Je n'ai jamais pu peindre Hiroshima, l'idée que je m'en faisais depuis des années ne correspondait plus à rien.
Il y avait de la dignité. Je ne sais pas peindre la dignité.
Après une promenade silencieuse dans le parc, nous avons pris un bateau qui, cinq minutes plus tard, nous déposa sur l'ile de Miyajima, sanctuaire shintoïste dominé par son torii rouge.
Et là, LE CHOC!
Cette grande porte rouge, les pieds dans l'eau, et les petites filles aux cheveux noirs et chemisiers blancs, jupes bleues, chaussettes blanches, souliers noirs.
Toutes dans un uniforme impeccable. Cette eau limpide verte et bleue, un véritable miroir dans lequel tout se multipliait."
