Noël Aeby - Photographs
From the 27th of January until the 17th of June 2007

Produced during the last ten years, Noël Aeby’s photographs lead us to a privileged encounter with the landscape of the Fribourg region. The compositional drawing, the infinite plays of natural light, the choice of timeless subjects characterise the approach and testify of the artistic achievement of their author. At the same time, each of the images capture moments of fleeting beauty, being the sun set at the Point of the Vanil Noir, the edge of a forest ablaze with a cloud or effects of mist in the autumnal countryside. The contemplation of the 70 photographs reveals to be even more poetic as there are no humans visible.

Born on the 13 of December 1942, the Charmeysan Noël Aeby is a known professional. From 1962, he was the appointed photographer to Ciba-Geigy and then Ilford in Marly. He has also worked during many years as the official photographer for the Tour of Romandie (1976-1989) and the Tour of Switzerland (1977-1989). In parallel, he has multiplied his travels, capturing with his inquisitive camera natural sites as well as architecture or human portraits. Many prices, including twice the Swiss Grand prix of photography, exhibitions in Switzerland and abroad distinguish his work. Noël Aeby lives and works in Senèdes near Fribourg.
