Born in Nice in 1954 and an engineer by training, he is not a man insensitive to
beauty, but above all to this inner beauty, this music of the soul that make
authenticity.
His meeting with the tribes from Omo to Ethiopia, the landscapes of the Antarctic
continent or even the animals from South Africa are an elegy to a world that is in the
process to disappear.
His series "D'Ébène et d'Abîme" in Black and White, on Resilience, exhibited in New
York in 2013, at the Darkroom Gallery in 2014, at Mark Hachem Gallery in Beirut in
2015 is undoubtedly another highlight of his work.
His approach and capture of light, which he learned at the studios Harcourt in Paris,
are a signature. He likes to say that the only one true way is the one you make within
yourself. Being the official photographer of the Opéra de Nice allows him to continue
this inner way....
Passionate, he created in 2014 with his wife, a gallery dedicated to the art
photography in Nice, the Darkroom Gallery. In
permanent research of creative perspectives, the
gallery offers through its exhibitions temporary, a
selection of photographs in limited editions.
His series "Signature Gestuelle" takes a different
look at Dance, a look that is his own, a work on the
body signature of the dancer, essential to
Choreographic Art.
His exceptional shooting with "Maikos" in Japan in
the spring great artists of delicate and mysterious
beauty in the last century.
Service of a modern Japan, faithful to its secular traditions, given a delicate series,
highlighted by an impression on a unique Japanese paper.
The portraits brought back last summer from Papouasir New Guinea where he
met distant tribes that live in total autarchy and with whom he has experienced very
strong moments of emotion echo the very beautiful images on which he is currently
working on polar bears in
Arctic where he has just visited to fight against global warming in its own way.
