Biography
Born in France in 1965, Guillaume Zuili lives and works in Los Angeles. As a photographer with VU’ Agency, he worked in India between 1986 and 1995 and in 2003 released his first book, Pondichéry, Chandernagor, Mahé, Karibal et Yanaon with the publishing house Éditions du Chêne. From 1996, his photographic œuvre evolved and began to question the complexity of European cities throughout history. Focusing on the technique of double exposure, he documented Berlin, Moscow, Paris, Prague and Lisbon in a style already departing from realism. With his continuing use of singular analog techniques, he has documented his obsession with the American myth. With LA Chromos, he built a series with American icons such as the Ford 58, Elvis, the Coca-Cola sign… Each print has gone through a Chromoskedasic process, making it unique. At the same time, he refined his photographic style, moving towards the abstraction of grain in the series Smoke and Mirrors and San Pedro. More recently, with Urban Jungle, and later during his residency in the Perche or in Corbeil-Essonnes, he combined the use of the photographic chamber with the legendary Lith developer to create aesthetically timeless images. In 2021, he won the Collection Florence & Damien Bachelot Print Prize, organized by the Collège International de Photographie, a prize which has rewarded his dedication to his darkroom practice. On this occasion, a portfolio tracing his creative process entered the collection of the Bibliothèque nationale de France.
