CV :
Patrick de Warren was born in Avignon and somehow didn1t hold a camera and take his first picture until he was 25 years old, He became a fashion photographer, working for Ford, He's work is internationally exhibited and created portraits of christina ricci, jamie lee curtis, chloe sevigny zac posen. His work is about light—expressing a reverence for the first photographic pioneers—all about using the sun, cheap lights from hardware stores , cadles light to the latest lighting gear, mixtures of the manufactured and the natural, to make beauty. There is a solmnity to his work that honors the subject—whether a model or a star in her apartment, as if through the somber, almost reportorial recording of the fleeting moment of the light, the human is an extention of the light rather than an object upon which the light plays. His landscapes offer the quietest sense of revelation—the melancholy peace of a blue dawn, light drained from the landscape and held with awe in frigid waters. His works contain a sense of drama without being staged or retouched. Light is his palette and his portraits have a painterly quality that1s hard to pinpoint. His portrait of Susan Sarandon, for example—elegant, girlish, innocent and hidden, she is nearly swallowed by the darkness of the room yet is illumianted by the fresh light falling through the window where she sits like a kid on the sill. Models shot in a marsh become renaissance figures, the light soft and flat, diffuse, preserving the secrecy and nobility of each subject. He is markedly not confrontational or probing—alowing a piece of the heart to sly peek through. He catches the inner elegance of each person, the gestural sense of an ongoing life through a face, Photo Exhibits: -Aoyama Spiritual hallin tokyo. - Kintetsu Art Museum in Osaka. -Kobe Fashion Museum in Kobe. -Amnesty International 40 th Anniversary. -Woodstock annual benefit Auction.
