Nikos Aliagas spoke with Gala in the company of photographer Jean-Marie Périer on the occasion of the latter’s imminent Flashback tour. The facilitator made some confidences about his relationship with his models.
At the beginning of April, Jean-Marie Périer will go on tour to all the CGR cinemas in France to tell the story of his many works. On this occasion, the photographer met the Gala journalists with a colleague who shares his passion: Nikos Aliagas. Known to the public as a host, the face of The Voice is nevertheless fond of photographs. If his Instagram account attests, Nikos Aliagas was even entitled to an exhibition on the gates of Paris City Hall from April 20 to May 10, 2021. 35 black and white photos showed Parisians immortalized in the capital. “They were my first vision when I watched them as a child over my father’s shoulder. These female figures, sometimes fleeting, sometimes bewitching, passed through my field of vision like dreams.“, confided Nikos Aliagas.
Nikos Aliagas: “With me, they all have wrinkles”
If the female subjects inspire the animator when he is behind the lens, he explains all the same to feel a certain apprehension. “I’m not comfortable with the women I photograph, because I do black and white“, he lets go before launching, for the attention of Jean-Marie Périer: “I don’t know how you were doing, but with me, they all have wrinkles…“. A remark that refers to this sentence of his colleague about light: “All actresses know that if there’s a window and you shoot them from outside, it’s great, they don’t have a wrinkle anymore!“. To comfort Nikos Aliagas, the famous photographer told him that he “was young“, before bursting out laughing.
