RICCHARD AUJARD

Richard Aujard (1965–2021) is one of the greatest portrait photographers of his generation. Known for a raw, direct and vibrant style, he spent 35 years capturing the strength and vulnerability of human beings, from Australian motorcycle clubs to the world's biggest stars. Mickey Rourke, Mike Tyson, Monica Bellucci, JoeyStarr, Éric Cantona. Faces caught with rare intensity.In 2026, his son Shanon Aujard and his partner Samia Bahemmouche organised "11", an unprecedented retrospective bringing together over forty silver gelatin prints at the Ancien Cours Florent on the Île Saint-Louis in Paris. I was brought in alongside Maxime Dufois, Art Director, to design the full visual communication for the event: a collector's book combining artworks, biography and quotes, vernissage invitations, artwork list, and a teaser video for the exhibition.
