Simon Richard HALIMI was born in Tunis on February 2, 1943. He left his native land 20 years later for France where he still resides. In 1974 he moved to Ivory Coast with frequent trips to Central and West Africa. This obliges him to maintain contact with his relatives and painting, to multiple trips between Africa and France. He has been painting since the 1960s and has produced thousands of works. Since February 2003 he left Africa and devoted himself fully to his art. SOME GROUP EXHIBITIONS - Salon of French Artists
