Description from the seller

Marc Simon is a French photographer and former director of photography for the magazine VSD, where he helped establish a demanding editorial line rooted in the strength of reportage and imagery. Rooted in the tradition of photojournalism, his work, like his editorial eye, favors a direct approach to reality, attentive to human and social issues. He belongs to this generation of image professionals who left a lasting mark on illustrated press in France.

Photograph taken for the magazine VSD in 1984 in Toulon, aboard the Gueprad frigate of the national navy. During a shoot with Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin.

Gelatin silver print

Seller's Story

THE TAYLOR GALLERY WORKSHOP The Atelier / Galerie Taylor, located at 7, on the eponymous street in the 10th arrondissement in Paris, is a friendly place dedicated to photography. It was created thanks to image enthusiasts, José Nicolas, photographer and manager of the place with the support of Jean Vinégla. Located a stone's throw from Place de la République, between rue du Château-d'eau and rue René-Boulanger, the place is dynamic, atypical and warm, resolutely turned towards sharing and mutual discovery of images at the 'international. The Atelier / Galerie Taylor is familiarly inclined to exhibit film photography while remaining open to the wide range of contemporary imaging techniques. It presents well-known and emerging photographers, with the aim of always surprising and arousing the curiosity of collectors and visitors. Since its opening in September 2019, the Atelier / Galerie Taylor has carved out a good reputation, going from being a confidential place to a showroom recognized by professionals and collectors, both for the choice of its programming and for the quality of the prints on display.
