ABOUT CHRISTOPHE MEIREIS
Co-founder of the magazine 'Causette,' he produced the first forty covers, among others, before leaving the editorial staff in 2013. A seasoned portrait painter, he regularly collaborates with many magazines for which he produces portraits of personalities and reports.
Today, he divides his time between his commission work, which takes him to the world's four corners, and the pursuit of his personal series.
At the heart of his approach, we find the constant presence of the human implicitly, as evidenced by his series on travelers or on former prisoners sentenced to death. Inspired by the Düsseldorf school, for his personal work, he favors the use of the 4x5 Inch camera and the medium format, which impose slowness and rigor. These two constraints, Christophe Meireis, make them allies to serve his artistic approach.
Meireis' work has been published internationally in many press coverage and publications, including in the Le Parisien Magazine, Vanity Fair, Le Monde M, Der Spiegel, Paris Match, VSD, Elle, Forbes, Biba, Studio Ciné Live, Men's Health, FHM, Top Chef, Air le Mag, Science et Vie Junior, Dr. Good, Whiskey Magazine, Taste & Share, Public, Télé 7 Jours, Télé Loisir, Chat, Le Pelerin, Top Santé...among others.
