On Tuesday 18 June, the Prince travelled to Callas in the Var to meet the artist Bernard Bezzina. On this occasion, Prince Albert was able to discover the works that will be presented at the exhibition “Eclats” at the hostel of Gorges du Pennafort from June 29, 2019. The Sovereign Prince has, in the past, met several times with the Toulon painter and sculptor, particularly in 2016 in Pietrasanta in Italy and 2017 in Saint Tropez. In September 2019, Bernard Bezzina will offer, as in 2017, an unpublished work that will be sold at the Monte Carlo Gala for the Global Ocean for the benefit of the Prince Albert II Foundation.

The Monegasque players have had good results this year – the latter just missing promotion to Division 2 by three points. The Principality’s club is “one of the most dynamic” in a booming sector . The help of Louis Ducruet as ambassador has been invaluable as was the arrival of Jean Petit, former legend of AS Monaco, to the position of sports advisor.
