News has just reached me of the tragic loss at the age of 92, of one of Magic's Greatest artists,

Piere Edernac.


This Translated biography, from

http://biographie-magicien.blogspot.com ... ernac.html


Pierre Edernac is an illusionist. He practices magic for over 70 years. He is a creator who has exercised his art in the world. Inventor turns, magic theorist, teacher, showman complete, it is both witness and actor of the century by crossing the performing arts. He was the professor of magic Mirouf Sylvain, Fred Bernard Bilis Razon and others. Here are the winners of this man: - Prize presentation in Paris. - Prizes of magic cards in Belgium. - Awards presentation in Holland. - Prizes Invention in Paris. - card magic prize in Paris. - Professor at the National Circus School. - Teacher in-service training of the show. - Vice President of the AFAP from 1969 to 1973. - President of the AFAP from 1973 to 1977. - Chairman of the National Council of illusionists from 1973 to 1977. - French representative at the FISM. - Judge of the FISM. - Creator of the First Congress of the French illusion. - Organizer French Congress of illusion 1966, 67, 68. He was also the creator of a great routine called "Symphony of a single string" and was the star of "Crazy Horse Saloon" . pierre left us December 26, 2011, a huge loss in the world magical.


Edernac, has been sited by most of todays formost rope magicians, as a major influence in their art. To me, he was up there with Cardini, Pollock, silvano, and all the true great Manipulators of the past.
I for one will miss his graceful, and apparently effortless act, for the rest of my life.
