Philippen and son love their camera. The father may have a preference for landscapes and architecture, the son be fascinated with feminine beauty, but conceptual their work is not. Both are delightedly devoted to the framing eye of the camera. Their works keep each other in balance. They are different but also related in their dislike of great narratives, of critical stances, of drama, of emphatic rhetoric.
About the Artists
Rafaël Philippen is a photographer who still marvels at the world. His look is innocent, like that of the deer basking in the grass in one of his photos. They don’t seem to be aware of any harm. A tad naive perhaps, unashamedly romantic at times, but open-minded.
