Julien Benhamou is the photographer of dance, muscle and movement. Whether he photographies outside or in studio, it flies and swings, the style is aerial, the dynamic is built like a rhythmic measure where we don't get bored. That is what it is: even if the image stays fixed, the object is versatile, volatile, mobile, animated by cadence. The viewer is on tenterhooks, he beats time with a slight nod, and as the show is alive, it comes alive in front of his eyes to allow him to project himself in the room, on the stage. Through his art, Julien captures the poetry of curves and tensed banded lines. He offers us the show of aestheticism, of petrified movement, frozen in his eternity. Forget about the academic image of classical ballets, the poses are freed from conventions, and references to the archetypes of fashion are claimed upon: artificial opaline lights with iridescent sheen, effects on matter or texture, dancers posing like models ... Because his models are artists, dancers, great dancers, elegance itself.
