BIOGRAPHY OF INSTRUCTOR:
GAËL ABBEG GAUTHEY (FR)
Gaël Abegg Gauthey aka Lupin, is a video Visualist & Scenograph.
He built his pictural culture around animated images and comics. In 2000 he collaborated with the National Scene of Annecy and joined the pedagogical team at the Gobelins school in Annecy where he teaches Flash animation and the conception of numerical projects.
In 2006, the Internet became too small as a field for his expression, which lead him to create the video events agency VisionSonore where he works on bringing video image to the human and architectural scale. He collaborates with the urban fashion magazine WAD and creates in 2007, the first videomappings in France. In 2008, he collaborates with the Abode of Chaos where Thierry Hermann orders an artistic piece for the the Biennale of Contemporary Art’s off-event .
In 2010, he becomes an independant artist and works with real time dynamic image for electronic music. At this moment, he also started to work as an independant scenograph and VJ with the association Visual Invaders.
