With a strong element of romanticism, Joachim Frydman’s photography delights the senses.

Joachim Frydman has a deliberate artistic style in his contemporary photography.  He adopts different approaches for his black and white pictures and his color photography, and both photography techniques result in truly stunning images with an aura of romanticism.

Joachim Frydman, Le Louvre et sa pyramid, 500€

Frydman’s black and white photography focuses on the element of reflection.   He often plays with the eye by reversing photographic images –as in his Canal St works and photographs taken of the Louvre and its pyramid.  We see the reflection of a scene in the top portion of the photograph, and enter Frydman’s realm of wonder and play with the senses, in the spirit of romanticism.

In Frydman’s color photography, a theme of romanticism connects the images.  With dramatically radiant city scenes, such as a series of the Hudson River and his alluring displays of the Eiffel Tower, Frydman brings us into a world of luminous color and beauty.  Some of his landscape photography looks like dreamy illustrations of different settings, such as La cite perdue des Incas and Le village de Gordes.  Just as in the romanticism art of the mid-19^th century, Frydman’s work celebrates unbridled nature, the senses, and emotion’s triumph over reason.
