In 1984, Gil Rigoulet became the first staff photographer for the newspaper Le Monde, with whom he collaborated for over 20 years. In 1986, Robert Doisneau presented his images in Photo Magazine, and Christian Caujolle exhibited him at the Deligny swimming pool for “Vivre en maillot de bain”, alongside Joseph Koudelka, Marc Riboud, William Klein, Helmut Newton and Jacques-Henri Lartigue.

He is a regular contributor to many national and international magazines, and his work has been exhibited at the Rencontres d’Arles, the Musée du Montparnasse, Paris Photo by Agnès b…

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.

Laure Lepage is a photographer/plastician who graduated from the University of Paris 8. Since then, she has developed her skills, specializing in interior design and object photography.

Fascinated by the sensations generated by images, she composes all her photographs with the intention of relaxing, sometimes touching on the strange. When she discovered the cyanotype technique two years ago, she fully integrated it into her photographic practice. The process allows her to revive her artistic techniques, and dialogues perfectly with her compositions.

Laure Lepage photographs by focusing on the smallest details of objects or motifs encountered during walks in nature and apartments: the veins of a petal, the opening of a shell, the calm of the horizon… Her images are imbued with the joy of recomposing spaces and small scenes, inviting the viewer to rest.

Victoire Orth is a young French photographer based in Paris. Passionate about photography for several years, it was during a trip to Brussels that she met Gil Rigoulet, and became his assistant. It was a collaboration that developed into a beautiful friendship, and today leads Gil to sponsor his assistant in order to make her work better known.

“Encountered by chance, a glance, words, in a draught in the main square of Brussels, Victoire, as long as an eyepatch, film camera on her hip, fresh-eyed as an 18-year-old, has no interest in the meanderings of a question. She poses to herself, looks into her sensibility and explores this natural light that grazes the skin like an intensity of having to live, her world is her proximity, her gaze is her awareness of building between graphics and emotion. She’s hungry for perfection and moves fast…
Victoire has been assisting me for 8 months, a joy! “

Like many children who grew up in the countryside, Niels Stoltenborg was fascinated by plants, an inexhaustible source of fascination and surprise. He remembers telling his grandmother that he wanted to be a gardener.

He didn’t become a gardener. He studied photography, graphic design and drawing. As a freelancer, he worked as a photography and production assistant. In the 90s, he set up a studio in Istanbul for advertising and magazines. Today, he devotes himself entirely to his artistic and photographic creation.

In Végétalisme, Niels Stoltenborg’s childlike fascination with the Earth re-emerges. His work is based on an intuition: the colors and shapes of fruit and vegetables have both abstract potential and something to tell us.
