He lives and works in Paris. After studying visual arts at the Beaux-Arts in Paris, Georges Poncet follows his main interest: photography. Passionate about painting and sculpture, he photographs works of art. He is a photographer for the Louvre Museum since 1997, and takes photographs of the Egyptian pieces in the museum. His other specialty is contemporary art - his work on (and for) Soulages is remarkable. That is the professional photographer side of his career.
