Biographie d'Alain Chenevière
A genuine modern-day adventurer, Alain Chenevière prefers the uncharted and sometimes troubled waters of our world, seeking out the spots where he can still encounter "other peoples". A distinguished grammarian, specialist in ancient languages and keen mythologist, he is convinced that the value of this world resides in its differences.
He travels the world over, collecting and bringing back the pictures and texts which have made his works a precious record of our planet at the end of the 20th century.
A renowned photographer, he has published some 41 books for major publishing houses both in France (Hologramme, Nathan, Hachette, Denoël, Vilo...) and overseas (Doubleday, Time Life, Bucher, Mondadori...), and contributed to several international projects. He was chosen, with 13 other photographers from around the world, to illustrate Cannon's professional album entitled "The Art of Image" and has also produced films for various European television channels.
