Embark on an intimate journey with Philippe Katerine and Philippe Eveno, and enjoy the live performance Ce que je sais de la mort, ce que je sais de l’amour ("What I know about death, what I know about love") for the first time abroad at Kollektivet Livet Bar & Scen (Stadsgårdsterminalen).

Welcome to a performance like no other organised by Institut français de Suède and Kollektivet Livet.

“Ce que je sais de la mort, ce que je sais de l’amour...” 

Based on a book written and illustrated by Philippe Katerine*, this two-part show starts with a lecture by the artist himself. With his trademark humor and sensitivity, Philippe Katerine delves into profound existential questions, engaging the audience in a thought-provoking exploration, through a live commentary of his own drawings. 

As Philippe Eveno (guitar) enters the stage, music slowly takes over the philosophical journey. Combining reflections, improvisations and songs from Philippe Katerine’s repertoire, the “Frères Philippe” - the "Philippe Brothers", as they playfully call themselves – offer a touching performance.

DJ-Set - Paulette Sauvage and the new French electro music scene

After the show, we’re excited to welcome on stage French DJ Paulette Sauvage who’s also doing her debut in Sweden!

Paulette Sauvage likes to modulate contradictions. Her set varies between hot and cold, speed and slowness. A technodeep with an unexpected groove. Music from the past meets music from the future, making us feel infinitely alive to the new sounds of French electronic music.
