Eugène Bizeau (29 May 1883 in Véretz – 16 April 1989 in Tours) was a French anarchist poet and chansonnier. He contributed to many periodicals and libertarian newspapers of his time, including le Libertaire. He belonged to the "Muse Rouge"[1] group with Gaston Couté and Aristide Bruant.
He cultivated his vines until he was ninety years old. The party hall of Véretz is named after him.
Gérard Pierron in particular put on music and interpreted his lyrics Ferraille à vendre and Il neige sur les mers. {{ill|Alain ô grand pacifisme

Tribute
In 1983, the year of his 100th birthday, Eugène Bizeau was invited by journalist Jacques Erwan[2] to meet, during a debate, with the young public of Printemps de Bourges. As a result, the singers Gérard Pierron, Alain Meilland and Michel Grange created the show Les Cent Printemps des poètes during which they performed Bizeau's poems, which they had set to music (Songe creux – Eugène Bizeau/Gérard Pierron and Pacifiste — Eugène Bizeau/Alain Meilland).
In 1986 the Académie Charles-Cros awarded its prize in the heritage category to this record. Eugène Bizeau was 103 years old.
