Andrzej Dragan Art for Sale and Sold Prices

b. 1978 -

Andrzej Dragan (born in 1978 in Konin, Poland).Polish photographer known for his portraits with a very marked style. He is also a physicist specialised in a quantum physics. Dragan's style is characterized by a raw realism, precision of the details and the crystalline clarity of the colors. However, this realism innovates by its search for an "effect" close to painting, and more precisely to the art of Dutch painters.

Thanks to his mastery of staging, color processing and local contrast management, Andrzej Dragan achieves a chiaroscuro effect ("Dragan's effect") that rejects superfluous details in the shadows, and thus gives his portraits almost a mystical dimension.
