Why a photo blog?

The Antimuseum in Paris and Beyond is a photography blog. It is the photography blog of Yann Gourvennec, an artist and photographer with a passion for visual art. It was created almost two decades ago, initially as a platform to showcase his watercolours. However, photography quickly took over, as the author has always been a photographer at heart, for as long as he can remember.

Why a photography blog on Antimuseum.com?

Why a photography blog, you ask? The answer is simple. This blog gives Yann Gourvennec photography a platform to showcase his work to as many people as possible. This photo blog doesn’t just display his latest shots. It also provides detailed explanations of each image, telling stories that are sometimes humorous, sometimes simply explanatory. In this blog, the author, sometimes assisted by a few interns, most of whom are American, endeavours to add historical and descriptive information about the places and people depicted in these photographic narratives, whenever possible.

The Photo Blog of a Professional Photographer

Yann Gourvennec is not only a passionate photographer, he is also a professional portrait photographer. You can view his work as a portrait photographer on the dedicated page of his photo studio.

This studio, located in the 15th arrondissement of Paris, rue Desnouettes, is a space dedicated to professional photography, aimed at businesses and freelancers.

MYRIAD PHOTOGRAPHIC GENRES
In addition to his work as a portrait photographer, Yann Gourvennec also explores a variety of other photographic genres. Street photography and urban landscapes, portraits of people and landscapes, as well as still lifes are all subjects covered on this blog. Each image has its own story, representing a moment frozen in time by the shutter.

Antimuseum.com, the anti-museum in Paris and beyond is more than just a photography blog. It’s an online gallery, a living showcase for the blogger’s work and passion for photography. A place where each photo speaks for itself and conveys its truth. And who knows, maybe readers will even find inspiration for their own photographic or personal adventures.

Antimuseum is a place where visitors are invited to share their passion for photography through the eyes of the photographer.

You can catch a glimpse of his work as a professional portrait photographer on the photo studio page. The studio is located in the 15th district of Paris, France. Antimuseum is operated by Visionary Marketing
