Pierre Duvert
Photographer
Pierre Duvert was born in 1960.
After studying sociology, he became a professional photographer and worked for many years in advertising. Today he works in social and documentary photography, and is particularly focused on discrimination and oppression of all kinds.
His photographs are the result of subjective positioning across a range of topical subjects, at the crossroads of a desire for information and a long-term perspective. Pierre DUVERT has been a member of the studio Hans Lucas since October 2015.
