Urban Traces
Description :
This black and white photograph, taken by Ben Dauchez in Cape Town, captures the essence of urban remnants through a poignant composition of abandoned objects. The image highlights a crushed beer can and a piece of twisted metal, resting on a rough ground scattered with debris. The stark contrasts and raw textures of the photograph emphasize the raw and fleeting beauty of the traces left by human activity.
Format :
Dimensions: 60x90 cm
High-quality impression on premium photographic paper.
Limited edition, signed by the artist.
Features :
Black and white photography
Capture the essence of the urban environment
Ideal work for contemporary art enthusiasts and urban photography lovers.
This unique piece by Ben Dauchez is a valuable addition to any art collection, offering an introspective view of the hidden beauty of urban landscapes. This artistic photograph in matte fine art, in a square format of 60x90 cm,
The photographic technique used creates an almost painterly effect, where areas of shadow and light blend harmoniously. The deep black background contrasts beautifully with touches of blue light, giving the work a dimension that is both contemporary and timeless.
The proposed matte fine art print will particularly highlight the softness of the transitions and the subtlety of the nuances, offering a refined visual experience. This work perfectly aligns with the tradition of contemporary artistic photography.
A certificate will be provided.
Passionate about photography from a young age, Ben DAUCHEZ started in the neighborhood studios of La Rochelle. There he acquired all the basics of photography from classical technique, to shooting and retouching, including the laboratory. At 22, freshly graduated, he moved to Paris to perfect his training by becoming a set assistant for the Daguerre studios, Le Petit Oiseau va sortir and Studio Zéro. He had the chance to collaborate and assist the most talented photographers: Bettina RHEIMS, Patrick DEMARCHELIER, Terry RICHARDSON, Ellen VON UNWERTH, Marcus MAM... From certain decisive encounters were born beautiful projects and long collaborations, notably with André RAU, Bettina RHEIMS (the sulfurous INRI exhibition and its eponymous book at Editions Albin Michel) and Peter BEARD (Pirelli 2009 calendar in Botswana).
His photos are published, among others, in Editions Condé Nast (French and international), Première, WallPaper, ID, Madame Figaro, Lifestyles, Dandy Magazine... His universe also interests brands with very different identity codes for which he has signed the production of Institutional and/or advertising campaigns such as Dior (beauty), L'Oréal, Peugeot, Philip Morris or Burger King (Advertising awarded at the Dubai Lynx).
Ben DAUCHEZ has also produced numerous portraits of celebrities (IGGY POP, Woody HALLEN, Grace JONES, Jean DUJARDIN, Gilles LELLOUCHE, Olivier MARCHAL, Carole BOUQUET, Charlotte GAINSBOURG, ...), beauty, men of the world (Olivier DASSAULT, Jacques SEGUELA ...) and travelers...
This photographic path has since allowed him to freely immortalize the human, aesthetic, and spiritual beauty of each personality.
