After extraordinary success in Europe, the exhibition will present from June 4th to September 3rd his two most recents series : Extra Not So Terrestre and I want to believe shot in LA in 2020.
Sacha Goldberger is a French Photographer celebrated for his narrative photography series that embodies a cinematic quality. He started his career as a creative artist at CLM BBDO, one of the major advertising agencies of the time, and graduated from the Ecole de l’Image Gobelins in Paris. His work has been influenced by the concept of weaving cultures that oppose each other and of combining the incompatible.
The desire to tell stories that challenge traditional categories has been his driving motivation and has propelled him to create projects worthy of film productions.
As for many contemporary photographers, Hopper has been a major influence. His images have been compared to that of Eugenio Recuenco, Erwin Olaf, Jeff Wall, or Gregory Crewdson for their shooting technique; but their subject matter is quite personal, their uniqueness is derived from offbeat references in time and space. He initially won notoriety after the release of his series featuring his grandmother Mamika shot as a popular superhero. His talent was further acknowledged and celebrated with his Super Flemish series, a “Renaissance” interpretation of popular comic characters.
His work is strictly scripted, built, and engineered. He navigates through time with costumes and historical sets, creating visual stories that entice the imagination and challenge the realm of possibilities. He has published several books and has been exhibited in international Art Fairs and galleries. His series have been shown in monumental outdoors exhibitions in Paris and Delhi. He lives and works in Paris, France.
