Uber den Künstler

Vincent Lagrange (1971, Antwerp, Belgium) is a Belgian-French artist, specializing in animal photography. He grew up in Antwerp and studied Visual Media, and Film & Photography. His father is a professional photographer too, who greatly influenced his son. Vincent finished his schooling with an internship for Magic Group, a post-production company based in Amsterdam. After working there for a year and a half, he went back to Antwerp to continue photographing by himself. Vincent was also influenced by Erwin Olaf, Tim Flach, Richard Avedon, Wes Anderson, Ansel Adams, Mario Testino, Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Sally Man, and Henri Cartier-Bresson.

His style of photography is soft, elegant, yet frugal. His animal photography started with Dwiezel, the cat he held in his father’s studio. It was the perfect test subject. Animals show emotions and Lagrange tries to capture those in his portraits. Through animal photography, he found a way to show his love for animals. He hopes to touch people’s hearts through the pictures in his book Human Animals. Lagrange exhibited in several galleries in Belgium and the Netherlands and received very positive reviews of his photographies in Belgium and abroad in many journals and magazines, e.g. in the Daily Mirror, Abduzeedo, Visual Arts. Lagrange was rewarded many times.
