Back to his Brazilian projects, the artist put aside the Orly airport series for several years. He was not back to the Orly phase until 2008, as he created a series of 11 new paintings under the influence of the jazz singer Shirley Horn, the soundtrack Miles Davis composed for Louis Malle’s film, "Lift to the Scaffold", and the soundtracks of Claude Lelouch’s films "Live for Life" and "A Man and a Woman", both composed by Francis Lai.
