Emmanuel Gimeno

Emmanuel Gimeno was born in France and studied high academic and visual arts technique at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. He graduated with honors in 1990 with a thesis exclusively composed with photography; which since then became his medium of choice.

He lived between Paris and New York for more than 20 years, conducting work of conceptual art, fashion photography and creative direction.

As a great admirer of Gilles Deleuze, he also believes Art is an act of resistance before being any kind of communication tool. He always preserves his disruptive visions which have brought him both great achievements as well as intriguing rejections.

"Some of my best work lies in my rejection drawer".

Most known for his work of image sequences, fragmented-cut negatives and multiple exposure techniques, Emmanuel Gimeno's approach teases the viewer with his shifted contemplations.
