Né en 1959 , Eric MARRIAN est architecte de formation.

Il décide au début des années 2000 de revenir à ses premières amours, la photographie, discipline dont il avait hésité à faire son métier alors qu’il était encore étudiant en architecture.

Il commence une série sur Saint Malo en 2003 qu’il poursuit encore, puis passe à la photographie en studio, en moyen et grand format…Les choses vont alors s’enchaîner très vite : il gagne le concours de BIEVRES, est publié à de nombreuses reprises dans la presse photographique, et bénéficie d’une exposition personnelle au salon des Artistes Français, à l’invitation des organisateurs.

Fin 2005 il démarre la série CARRE BLANC. Avec les premières images de cette série, il gagne le prix 2006 du festival européen de la photo de nu d’Arles…

Sa série Saint Malo est également récompensée par la dotation Leica Procirep.

L’exposition qui suit à la galerie Verdeau est un vrai succès : Il y est repéré par un galeriste russe (galerie 2.36) qui va l’exposer et le faire exposer à plusieurs reprises en 2008 et 2009.
Olga Sviblova le programme pour la biennale de Moscou et lui dédie un espace de 400m2.

Sa série « Carré Blanc » a depuis été régulièrement exposée en France et à l’étranger (Galerie Verdeau Rive Gauche, Fondation ERA à Moscou, Mostra de Venise-Mestre, Les 3 jours de Drouot, Maison Européenne de la Photographie…).

Connu et suivi chez de nombreux annonceurs (Nikon, Kodak, Leica, DUPON), il développe un regard sur le monde de la mode en signant début 2010 ses premiers éditos.

After hesitating to become a professional photographer after its studies, he finally decided to stop completely photography and, after a pause of fifteen years, at the beginning of the 2000’s, he finally returned back to its first love.
In 2003, Eric begins a series on the French marine city, Saint Malo, and after that he started to shoot in Studio. Then, things went very fast: he won the Photography contest of BIEVRES and was published on several occasions by the photographic press. He was invited by the organisers of ‘Le Salon des Artistes Français’ to show its work.
End 2005, he started its series ‘Carré Blanc’ in studio. The first images of this series received in 2006 the award of the European Festival of Nude Photography in Arles, France.
His series on St Malo was also awarded by the Leica Procirep Dotation.
The exhibition which follows at the Gallery Verdeau was a real success. He is then spotted by a Russian Gallery, Gallery 2.36, which acquires the totality of the images existing at that time. Its work will be exhibited, repeatedly in 2008 and in 2009, in Russia.

Eric Marrian (nacido en 1959) es un arquitecto profesional francés que decidió regresar a su original pasión por la fotografía. Líneas, curvas y perspectivas componen su obra fotográfica. Su serie “carré blanc” ofrece otra visión de la sensualidad.

Como él mismo dice, esta serie podría ser considerada como fría debido a la elección de los saturados blancos y negros. Nos cautiva la arquitectónica sensualidad de su obra.

El artista maneja su cámara como un pintor su brocha. Los cuerpos aparecen detenidos, congelados, con una elegancia que nos impulsa a reflexionar. La dulzura de Eric Marrian se refleja en sus fotografías.
