Researcher : Hello sir Degas, I'm a researcher in economical developpement, and in the behaviour that poeple can have with this consumption of society.
Recently, an modernartist have made an pop art poster from your very famous work of art.Can you discribe this one ?
Degas : Hello, yes I have...
I have painting "Glass of Absynthe", in 1875.
In this painting, we can see the lethargy of the two people, and their disenterest for the other.
They drink a glass of Absynthe in a bar, they are together, but they don't care about their other half.
Researcher : Of course, we have seen that.
And, our artist have take your painting to show now how the poeple act in the society.
They don't talk.
They are on their phone, on their tablet, in a virtuel life, but during this time, the real life go on.
Poeples are next to the life.
The problem don't stop it here.
We are in a "always more" society.
A new phone is not yet created, engineers think already of the next.
Poeple don't know anymore been happy with what their have.
They can't be satisfied with a technologie who work.
They can't be satisfied with a phone who serve to phone.
They will the new, but why ?
And the most important question :
Until when this functionnal mode will be work ?
What can do stop the way that the world take ?
