Biography

My name is Christophe Van Biesen and I am a professional photographer based in Luxembourg. I specialise mainly in natural and urban landscapes, photographing the Grand-Duchy's capital city and its countryside. For several years, I have been concentrating in particular on the changing seasons. Immortalising typical views using a unique angle and light has become the unmistakable characteristic of my photographic style. This is how the Seasons of Luxembourg Art Collection came to life. The photographs that are part of this series have been exhibited on multiple occasions in various venues, such as the European Investment Bank and the Cercle Munster, to cite but a few. Furthermore, parts of the collection have also been acquired for large permanent art installations, such as a permanent exhibition in the ARBED building, 19 Liberté, in Luxembourg City, as well as a total of 250 artworks exhibited in the “Op Acker” Servior building in Bascharage, Luxembourg. In total, nearly 1,000 artworks have been acquired by private collectors as well as Luxembourgish and international companies. 

A few years ago I had the incredible opportunity to create my most impressive exhibition to date at the Contemporary Art Gallery “Am Tunnel”. “Home and Away - Landscapes by Christophe Van Biesen” collects over 130 images from Luxembourg as well as from my many travels around the world. The varied aesthetic of these landscapes aims to highlight our planet’s diversity and beauty: from the vast landscapes of the North American continent to Asian megacities, via Iceland, France, Italy and numerous other destinations; without of course forgetting Belgium, my birthplace.

My work has led me to collaborate with a range of different clients in Luxembourg. I mainly create art displays and exhibitions for local companies’ office spaces, while also taking on commissioned projects related to architecture and landscape photography projects. I also sell publishing rights to the majority of my portfolio and run an online shop selling a range of items related to my landscape photography. Since 2015 I have also been teaching landscape and travel photography, offering individual photography lessons as well as group workshops.
