About The Author

Roland Farjon

Born in Buenos Aires, Eric Mistler moved to Paris when he was 13. He soon became an independent photographer specialised in music and sport, his two other passions. His documentaries on AC/DC Let There Be Rock or on transoceanic sailor Eugène Rigidel became legendary. Eric also produced featured films such as Bruno Podalydes’ Versailles Rive Gauche, winner of the 1992 César for best short movie, and Patrice Leconte’s Le Magasin des Suicides. In 2019, his first book Paris Buenos Aires was published by Kerber Verlag, followed by exhibitions in France and Argentina. The book was shortlisted for best photo book by the German bookseller association. In 2021, Eric started the project Sportives.
