Claude Langlois is a photographer who was born in The Montreal, Canada. He studied first arts and crafts, proceeded to photography and finally to cinematography. He currently lives south of Munich. Langlois soon developed a taste for art photography and set on working towards developing a process for this. His early works brought him recognition and critical appreciation in and around Quebec. For more than 10 years, his work has focused more on photography. He has exhibited much in Europe and his unique contemporary art photography on acrylic has made him achieve an artistic interpretation that’s characterized by semi-transparent colored use of shadow and light. In recent years, Claude’s dedication to abstract painting now following his photography has brought him to work on techniques and the new aspect of painting with acrylic on wooden panel and canvas. His interests include culture, art, sports and travel. Claude is a graduate of University of Québec in Montreal.
He also studied at C.E.G.E.P. De Maisonneuve College of Health Sciences. He has exhibited at Cologne – ArtFair, Lindau (Medusa of the Sea -Erotic art), Tokyo (Medusa of the Sea -Digitale Fotokunst), Munich (Medusa of the Sea - Digitale Fotokunst) and Wangen (Medusa of the Sea -Digitale Fotokunst). His images have also won many national and international awards. He believes that photography is a means through which we can make sense of our experience in our society that’s increasingly rapidly shifting. The unique style he uses has made his art to be easily recognizable. The artist approaches photography much as he approaches life...with a lot of keenness, intuitively and with free expression.
