During her career, Paris-based Anne Boulay has shaped the conversation around French style and culture. In 2013, she became the founding editor in chief of Vanity Fair France, bringing the magazine’s signature blend of reportage and glamour to a new audience. Before that, she led GQ France as editor in chief, forging a distinctly French point of view on modern masculinity. Earlier in her career, Boulay oversaw the style pages at Libération for almost a decade, refining an editorial voice that was equal parts sharp and generous.
Born in 1962, Harald Gottschalk discovered photography at a young age and never looked back. After finishing school, he had a chance encounter with the legendary Robert Doisneau, setting him on the path to realizing his lifelong dream. Over the course of his career, Gottschalk has presented more than sixty solo and group exhibitions across France and abroad, including at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, Mois de la Photo, FIAC, Art Paris, the Salon d’Automne, and Paris Photo. Gottschalk has collaborated with Cartier, Rolex, Joël Robuchon, and Assouline, bringing his signature elegance and technical mastery to every project.
