| General info : | | Didier Massard (born in Paris in 1953) is a French photographer.
After working with Henri Langlois at the Cinémathèque Française, he developed a career as a professional photographer in the field still life, landscape and architecture.
From 1975 to 1999 he worked as a commercial photographer. Clients included Vogue Paris, Elle, Traveler, L’Oréal, Air France, Chanel, Christofle, Thompson, Hermès, Cartier.
From 1993 he undertook a series of personal works based on the design and construction of dioramas photographed in the studio.
Since 1998 he has devoted himself entirely to this work, and his images are exhibited both in France and abroad. They are present in various private and public collections.
Roberta Smith wrote in The New York Times that in Massard's work "color and space combine with fastidious detail to create a sense of illusion and artifice that is more usual to painting, Magic Realist painting in particular...one's willingness to suspend disbelief is a measure of Massard's skill."
Massard works slowly, completing only two or three images a year.
He resides in Paris. | |
