ANTOINE LYPPENS

Antoine Lyppens did a training course in sociology at the University of Aix-en-Provence, up to his license.

He however approached the photography much earlier thanks to the rediscovery in an attic of an old black and white enlarger, further to which he develops a taste pronounced for the darkroom in which he will cross numerous hours to demystify the secrets of the recording and the development. Because it is in self-taught that he gets closer of the profession, helped by diverse meetings and by varied experiences.

After the obtaining of its license it decides to make of the photography its main occupation, and leaves making a training course of three I within the agency Sipa Press, where he discovers the facets of photographer's profession by press. Art profession or profession by information, the steps are not the same, but do not nullify for all that.

Antoine Lippens exposed between 2002 and 2004 with the collective of aixois photographers Megaphone, which he then left given his departure for Spain within the framework of his studies. Brought in in France, its passion for the photography brings him in Paris in October, 2006.

Exploration of all the domains, such will be the watchword for year 2007.
