Partyfotografen in Paris

After years of studying the piano, Matthieu Gain continued his musical education at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston, specializing in film composition. Upon graduating in 1997, he returned to France and gained experience by collaborating on numerous short film projects. He was awarded the Best Soundtrack prize at the URCVIF competition and received a Special Jury Award at the Festival National du Court Métrage Étudiant. With more than ten years of experience, Matthieu Gain composed, arranged, orchestrated, and produced music for television (telefilms, series, documentaries, commercials...) as well as for international cinema (feature films). Since 2010, following around thirty years of amateur photography experience, Matthieu has turned his focus to professional photography. He has created several catalogs (for Bonpoint, Blanc d'Ivoire, Bonton...), photographed the works of various artists, and captured live performances (at La Reine Blanche, Je Suis Assise and different theatres in Paris...). Drawing on his dual background in music and photography, Matthieu has embarked on various artistic projects combining both mediums. His new series feature printed photographs accompanied by subtle soundtracks and music, representing a continual fusion of music and image, sound and light. His most significant personal project is Gaïa, a photographic and sonic documentary capturing specific locations drawn geographically at random from anywhere in the world. His commitment: no use of any gas-powered engines in the process! In addition to his many private piano lessons, Matthieu's primary focus remains on photographing clothing, furniture, events (art exhibitions, weddings...), and individuals (actors, musicians, artists, couples...).
