Laurent Fignon is one of the best French cyclists in history. Winner of two Tour de France and the 1989 Giro d'Italia it looked like he was going to beat Greg Lemond the 1989 Tour de France but something happened that last day to lose the Tour by 8 seconds. "I have been just a man who has done everything possible to make his way to dignity and emancipation. To be a man." So ends the book We Were Young and Carefree, the autobiography written by Laurent Fignon in 2009. May you rest in peace, champion. Laurent Fignon es uno de los mejores ciclistas franceses de la historia. Ganador de dos Tour de Francia y el Giro de Italia 1989 parecía que iba a ganar a Greg Lemond el Tour de Francia 1989 pero algo sucedió ese último día para perder el Tour por 8 segundos. “He sido sólo un hombre que ha hecho todo lo posible por abrirse un camino hacia la dignidad y la emancipación. Ser un hombre”. Así finaliza el libro Éramos jóvenes y despreocupados, la autobiografía que escribió Laurent Fignon en 2009. Que en paz descanses campeon.

I worked more than 35 years of my life in advertising. Art has always been my companion. Figurative painter. Available for commissions, I am always happy to discuss requests, and can easily be arranged through Saatchiart or directly to my email dpjpalaciosdiego@gmail.com Viktor Frankl, psychiatrist who survived the Nazi concentration camps, said that man needs something in his life as motivation to be able to continue with the weight of adversity, something to live for. I have been suffering for more than 6 years from a disease called chronic axonal polyneuropathy, in normal words, it is the damage of the nerves of the peripheral system. Since I was a child, I was privileged to be able to pick up a pencil and express things in a very easy and natural way, from the moment my disease manifested itself, this disappeared, to the point of almost not being able to write, but thanks to that fighting spirit that Viktor Frankl spoke about, I found in art a form of therapy and cure for my ailments, and today I express through my art feelings that many people find beautiful. I believe that we need heroes, idols, people who fill our lives with examples of courage, with words, images and sounds, that make our journey more bearable. That is why I paint people, and sometimes animals that are very important to those people. Trabaje mas de 35 años de mi vida en Publicidad. El arte siempre fue mi compañero. Pintor figurativo. Disponible para comisiones, siempre estoy feliz de discutir las solicitudes, y se puede arreglar fácilmente a través de Saatchiart o directamente a mi email dpjpalaciosdiego@gmail.com Viktor Frankl, psiquiatra que sobrevivió a los campos de concentración nazi, hablo que el hombre necesita algo en su vida como motivación para poder seguir con el peso de las adversidades, algo por que vivir. Yo sufro desde hace más de 6 años, de una enfermedad llamada polineuropatica crónica axonal, en palabras normales, es el daño de los nervios del sistema periférico. Desde muy pequeño, fui un privilegiado de poder coger un lápiz y plasmar las cosas de una manera muy fácil y natural, a partir de que mi enfermedad se manifestó, esto desapareció, hasta el punto de casi no poder ni escribir, pero gracias ese espíritu de lucha del que hablaba Viktor Frankl, encontré en el arte una forma de terapia y cura para mis dolencias, y hoy expreso a través de mi arte sentimientos que mucha gente encuentra hermosos.
