Conversation with Jane Birkin

Join actress and singer Jane Birkin at FIAF for a conversation about her iconic career and her storied relationship with French singer-songwriter Serge Gainsbourg in advance of her one-night-only performance of Birkin Gainsbourg The Symphonic at Carnegie Hall.

Birkin and Gainsbourg had a mythic love story that defined a generation, and together, they created some of the most beloved music of the 1970s. Birkin will discuss the rise of her music career from her infamous first hit Je t’aime moi non plus, to her solo career, and her recent work reinterpreting and performing Gainsbourg’s œuvre for a new generation.

Conversation moderated by Elia Einhorn, Pitchfork Radio & Talkhouse Podcast host and producer.

Conversation will be followed by a Q&A and book signing of Attachments, written in collaboration with her friend photographer Gabrielle Crawford.
