Jérôme Revon

Jérôme Revon was born in 1962 and grew up in Paris. Very early he started working in the image, hesitating to become a photographer. At the age of 22, he signs his first TV productions for the sports department of Canal+ and everything follows very quickly. Fort Boyard, Frou Frou, 7/7, Coucou c'est Nous, Capital, the presidential interventions of François Mitterrand, Jacques Chirac, Nicolas Sarkozy and François Hollande, the Victoires de la Musique, the César, Envoyé Spécial, the presidential elections or the debates between Nicolas Sarkozy and Ségolène Royal in 2007 and François Hollande and Nicolas Sarkozy in 2012, he became one of the most sought after live directors. Since 1997, he is also a producer. Read more Despite his commitment to his profession, the attraction for photography is still evident. In particular through photographic compositions that he calls SPLITS, in reference to the television practice of split-screens. His subject is the urban with a predilection for the achievements of the great names of contemporary architecture. His images of cities are cut and mixed in removable sections, "realizations" that in the same image combine two shots. He starts to exhibit in 2009. He also signs his first sculptures: brass characters who have the rhythm in the skin: the Pop. By dint of criss-crossing the cities on foot, and especially Manhattan, he began to take an interest in Street Art, an art that is essentially ephemeral and that he freezes durably through his pictures. Collages, stencils and graffiti find there a second life "outside the walls"...
