Hélène Gaillet is a self-taught photographer and artist born in France and raised in Larchmont and New York City. Her passion for photography developed early when she used her babysitting money to purchase her first camera at the age of 14.After successful careers in advertising and public relations, she was able to go freelance and turned to professional photography in her mid-thirties. In a field where she quickly excelled, it didn't take her long to leap over boundaries in her ability to explore beyond the limits of cameras and films.''Transcending unpredictable barriers, her work is as diverse and multileveled as the artist herself. From tranquil and free-form to photo sculpture to brilliantly outrageous eroticism and moveable poster forms, the artist leaves an impression of great provocative desire and phantasm." (Le Figaro, Paris)"To define HG's photos is to focus on audacity and perspicacity. A liberated and free-spirited documentarian, she is at ease beyond frontiers of art and expression." (L'Express, Paris)"Her universe is unexpected, extravagant and sophisticated. Her portraits of notorious celebrities are incisive and penetrating and often seem to participate as an accomplice with an insistent look of complicity." (Le Quotidien, Paris)HG doesn't simply take photographs; she creates and produces images which become reflections of her own desires and fantasies. The conceptual and spectacular are mixed in black and white and color to change our vision of the ordinary into a field of the unexpected. We are faced with unknown mediums, unprecedented and curious couplings and evasive erotic dreams already half forgotten."In the excitement of a color slide show we are surprised keyhole watchers of improvised pranks, voyeurs-participants of strange erotic happenings." (Salon des Refusés, New York)Prior to the 1980s, very few galleries showed photography exclusively, and options were limited for exhibiting this work; yet Hélène was exhibited as follows:Galleries• 1975 - Salon des Refusés, NY, One Woman Show• 1975 - La Photo Galerie, Paris, One Woman Show• 1975 & 1976 - Sequential Gallery, NY, Two Group Shows• 1976 - Women by Women, Midtown Y Photography Gallery, Group ShowTelevision• 1974 - The All American Series, etc., Hélène wrote and directed a weekly one-hour show on Manhattan CablePostersIn archives of the International Center of Photography (ICP), the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) New York. and the Centre Pompidou, ParisPublicationsBusiness Week, Car & Driver, Metropolis, New Times, New York, New York Times, Oui, Penthouse, People, Ski, TIME, The Village Voice, books, record album covers and more ...Please click the Shipping and Payments tab above for estimated delivery dates.
