About
Olivier Christinat (*1963 in Lausanne) is one of the significant figures of contemporary Swiss photography. After his photographic training in Lausanne he has worked since 1985 as a freelance photographer and, from the 1990s, developed an independent artistic body of work. He became known especially through series such as Photographies apocryphes, Événements, Nues and Nouveaux Souvenirs, in which he explores the boundaries between documentation, staging, and visual memory.
Christinat's photographs are characterized by precise image composition, poetic imagery, and an intense engagement with perception, landscape, and human presence. His works have been exhibited internationally and widely published. In 2013 he received the Rado Star Prize Switzerland at the Biel/Bienne International Photography Festival. In addition to his artistic work, he has been teaching photography in Geneva for many years.
With his unmistakable photographic approach, Olivier Christinat belongs to the formative voices of contemporary European photographic art.
