2 QUOTE Wether we are a talented artist, a gifted sport s man, woman, or even a genius of some area, it does not always be sufficient to overcome the obstacles of life. To pave the way towards achievement, it will require determination of course, but we cannot deny that being in the right place at the right time and benefit from a helping hand is often necessary. Artistic works are commonly not represented at fair value to the general public. Mediatisation should not be criteria of talent but a veritable continuity. It was based on this observation that we have decided through the association Be YOU, which reveal and boost talents from various horizons, to organise the first International Art Festival, the «Menton RIVIER ART». No doubt that the «Menton RIVIER ART» will help all these upandcoming artists to bring out the best of themselves and embrace Be YOU s motto: «Bringing out the best of yourself»
