Jean-Christophe Averty (born 6 August 1928 in Paris) is a French television and radio director,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jean-Christophe AVERTY )〕 and Satrap of the College of 'Pataphysique. Many of his television productions from the 1960s were early examples of French video art. His studies were used in the following decades by the research groups of the French National Audiovisual Institute (INA).〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=JEAN-CHRISTOPHE AVERTY ) 〕 == Biography == After graduating from the IDHEC, Averty started in television in 1952 at the then French Television Office. Since then he has directed over five hundred programs for television and radio, across all disciplines: fiction, documentary, drama, variety, and jazz. His many awards include an Emmy award in the USA. Azerty was appointed Satrap of the College of 'Pataphysique in 1990, due to his fascination for Alfred Jarry and Pataphysique. Azerty made his reputation on his strong character, his taste for provocation and his sense for innovative television. His 1963 series The Green Grapes created scrutiny because of the recurring sequence in which a baby was put through a grater. A keen connoisseur of jazz, Averty filmed the Jazz à Juan festival for many years. The pianist Martial Solal paid him a tribute in one of his compositions: ''Averty, c'est moi'' (Averty that's me). Over 28 years, he hosted 1,805 episodes of his radio show "Les Cinglés du music-hall", based on his own collection of jazz and variety 78s that he had bought in flea markets around the world. The show was cancelled in 2006 under Jean-Paul Cluzel's chairmanship of Radio France. The French section of the shows were based on notebooks entrusted to him by André Cauzard, filled with daily details of pre-war jazz music events. Averty directed television shows where he applied his singular style to showcase the greatest francophone singers such as Yves Montand, Johnny Hallyday, Sylvie Vartan, Juliette Greco, Georges Brassens, Dalida, France Gall, Serge Gainsbourg, Gilbert Bécaud, Guy Marchand, Léo Ferré, Tino Rossi, and Jean Sablon. In 1969 Azerty directed the TV movie ''Le Songe d'une nuit d'été'', starring Claude Jade, Christine Delaroche and Jean-Claude Drouot, and filmed entirely in bluescreen.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=LE PROVOCATEUR: Jean-Christophe Averty )〕 His television creations are landmarks in their use of video as a mode of artistic expression. Averty made great use of characters filmed against a blue screen overlaid on a drawn background. Examples are Sapper Camember, based on the eponymous work of Georges Colomb, and a production of Edmond Rostand's classic play Chantecler. Averty was one of the last salaried directors of the French Production Company. In 2012, he entrusted the management, conservation and safeguarding of the rights of all of his television and radio works to the French National Audiovisual Institute (INA); nearly a thousand television programs on jazz, sports, fashion, variety and the theater. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jean-Christophe Averty」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
