Jacques Daloze:
« After studying at ISEEC and a year of law at Assas, I worked for an American company in the retail sector for 3 years before taking off and setting up companies in various fields (printing, promotional items, car and motorbike accessories, ultrasonic cleaning equipment). I co-organised the French 10-metre shooting championships in Deauville in 2001 and the European championships in 2007. Conceptual art came very late in my life, around the age of 55. Having joined the Salon des Indépendants in 2018 as a volunteer, I became reporting secretary in 2019 and then excluded by striking off in 2020 for having denounced serious transgressions by members of the bureau. I was reinstated after my appeal in September 2023, followed by my appointment to the board of directors and then appointed Vice-President of the association and President of Art Capital 2024. »
