Growing up in Paris on the famous Place du Tertre in Montmartre, Albert Delamour remembers his grandmother and aunt’s homes being full of paintings and sculptures , the dinner parties with some of these artists whom were even family friends. From the impressionable age of sixteen, he started photography and never stopped. Trained at the Louis Lumiere School of Cinema, he worked with Master photographers in France, ultimately inspiring his own self-teaching. Delamour moved to New York in 1998 to further pursue his career as a photographer for Fashion and Advertising, but a different path was waiting for him in the city. Invited to present his personal work in a Soho gallery in 2001, Delamour put together the series Designed by Nature – large scale photographs of human sized plants and flowers in stunning color that quickly teleported him into the Art world. Albert Delamour invented a layering process using resin and precious materials like gold or silver leaf to create stunning results that elevate the traditional photograph into a high dimensional space. He combines his innovative techniques with his taste for classic beauty and the style of master painters to create entirely new imagery This unrivaled combination paired with his secret touch leaves behind a liquid-glass luminescence, making each piece come alive in its own dimensional way.
