OverviewOlivier Du Tr's first book of photography is a profound and haunting portfolio of subtle, quiet and sometimes even sentimental glimpses of life and landscape through the lens of a remarkable artist. This is the fourth book in RMB's series of original portfolios meant to expose readers to ""new eyes"" in contemporary photography. The book brings together a collection of black and white photographs chosen from multiple folios completed over seven years. Some images were made during Du Tr's extensive travels to Newfoundland, the Yukon and Belgium while the majority were made close to his home in Calgary, Alberta. The images presented here are not so much about place as they are about representing a feeling, a whisper, an impression, perhaps even existence itself. Although most photographers have fully embraced the digital age, Du Tr persists in traditional photographic methods, having used film and a wooden 45 large-format camera to produce many of the images in this book. Seeking Stillness explores what happens when the photographer opens himself up to the land that surrounds him, when he lets the wind and clouds roll over him.

After graduating as a graphic designer in 1998, Du Tré found his passion while enrolled in a three-year photography program at KISP in Ghent, Belgium. During that time, Olivier immersed himself in film cameras, darkroom printing techniques and black and white photography, all of which continue to play a huge role in his work today. After seven years of travelling back and forth, he decided in 2009 to make Canada his permanent home. Olivier lives in Calgary, Alberta. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
