JIRO SHIMIZU

From Japanese decent, his art photography combines the classical picture-composition with the narrative art of Japanese fairy tales, creating a phantastic world in his large- sized photos.

His work in which every scenery and prop is drawn and constructed by the artist himself, is Inspired from the old masters like Rubens and Caravaggio and the scenography of movie classics.

Jiro Shimizu was born in Marburg an der Lahn in Germany and works as a free photographer & film producer based in Vienna, Austria since 2006.
