About
Brano Gilan is a Slovak photographer and director living in Paris. He studied at the Gobelins - Ecole de l'Image school. At the end of his training in 2004, he joined the Granon laboratory, where he later became one of the 6 shareholders.
For 8 years, he was in charge of retouching and accompanied fashion photographers on shoots and in the laboratory. There he met the English photographer Steve Hiett, whom he assisted for more than ten years.
This was a seminal encounter that would influence his own practice and aesthetics of the image. At the same time, he turned to video and made films about fashion and crafts. In 2013, Brano became an independent director, specialising in the making of art films.
He works for Hermès, assiduously, and creates films highlighting the craftsmen's know-how. He films fashion shows and backstage at Chanel, Dior and Louis Vuitton.
Passionate about the art of gesture, Brano began filming dance and performance art in 2016. Yet his favourite subject is portrait photography.

Paris: Brano Gilan
"As a photographer, I love to discover. Sometimes it's places that you would not visit otherwise, sometimes it's people with whom you create a strong bond in very short time and you may never see again.
This time I met a class of children that are becoming teenagers, and together we created a dance film. They live in the Paris suburbs with no good reputation, but they have so many dreams. I was so moved by their presence and strength. There is even more in their eyes than words can tell.
At the same time I continue to work for Hermès, Courreges, Saint Laurent and others as a photographer and video maker."
