Gil is best known for his Street Photo of the 70s and 80s, his “Corps & Eau” series – from which “Molitor 85” and “Rockabilly 82” are taken – in b&w silver. After an intimate work entitled “Mes jours, mes nuits” (My days, my nights) and “Paysages sacrés” (Sacred landscapes) shot on Polaroid 665, he dives back into the world of the 80’s with “Pola Pool” and becomes the French ambassador for Polaroid Originals.

He exhibited at Artazart in late 2019.
