Alain Poggi

Philippe Lesage, artist photographer, nurtured his passion for photography from a very young age, guided by his grandfather and his “Lumière” bellows camera. From the Traverse du Prieur in the Saint-Louis district to the Plage des Catalans, via the old port and La Joliette, he explores Marseille through his lens.

In 1971, Philippe Lesage made his professional debut in the world of photography as a laboratory assistant, printer operator and wedding photographer. In 1975, he decided to direct his career towards special education while continuing to cultivate his passion for photography, using this art as an educational tool for young people in difficulty.

After a break of a few years, Philippe Lesage returned to photography in 1998, reconnecting with his love for this visual art. From 2008 to 2013, he participated in several personal and group exhibitions, then distinguished himself with his portfolio entitled “Impressions Ephémères”.

His talent was recognized internationally when his photography was pre-selected in the HIPA 2013 international photography competition in Dubai. In 2014, he became a finalist in the Grand Prix International de Photographie de Saint-Tropez and exhibited his works on the Place des Lices in Saint-Tropez in May of the same year. He continues his exhibitions at “Toucouleurs” in Nîmes in July and August, as well as in Aigues-Mortes in August and October 2014.
