The Chance Vought F4U Corsair is an American fighter aircraft. This model was in use from World War II until 1968 and was popularised by everyone through the series "Les têtes brulées".

Olivier Lavielle lives in a bygone age. He says: “I chose to live in a hybrid era comprising everything I love: from the 1940s to the late 1970s. My images are the expression of the world I love in.” In this parallel universe, the artist covets machines and particularly airplanes. Synonymous with adventures and challenges, their artistic dimension and the beauty of their lines make them striking subjects.
