Dani Olivier

Dani Olivier, born in 1969, is a French photographer who began his passion for photography as a teenager in an informal Parisian club. After graduating from HEC Paris, he explored digital self-portraits between 2000 and 2006, focusing on capturing the unique moment of a model's first nude selfie before it became widespread.

From 2007 onwards, Olivier specialized in abstract nudes, using projections, movement, and optical effects. His work is characterized by minimalistic setups—featuring a body, black backdrop, and lights—but employing cutting-edge technology like advanced projectors and cameras.

Olivier has authored several books: *Nus abstraits* (2011), *Nus abstraits et psychédéliques* (2011), and *Nus corps et âme* (2015). His extensive exhibition history includes shows in Kiev, Moscow, Paris, Los Angeles, Basel, Brussels, Arles, Saint-Tropez, Villeréal, and others, with notable events like the 2017 Fotofever Paris Art Fair and his role as a guest of honor at various festivals.
