La vie est plus belle avec un chien (2023) Photography by Grégory Dreyfus

Grégory Dreyfus decided very early on to become a painter. The obvious, an artist, but not only... An actor, an author, a director, a director, a photographer... A sort of family atavism which was to be gloriously balanced in art, by the action of one as by the action of the other. Dancer, mime, designer and singer were, however, his first living expressions.

After 4 years spent studying art and design at the JULIAN Academy and the school of graphic art and interior architecture, “Met de Penninghen” in Paris. And after having been the apprentice of one of the last great alchemists of oil painting. Or ambitious for having been approached, the Magnum photo agency in NY as photographer. ...Meeting masters, maintaining exchanges with great artists. Passionate about the History of ideas, self-knowledge... - A pronounced taste for Asia. But living in particular in London, Paris, NY and Taipei - He never stopped working to develop his creation, linking their very actions in all aspects.

Drawing, painting, playing, dancing, framing, installing... launching into transversal work, as an actor on all forms of theater stages as well as film sets - author, director - director... and visual artist. Thus nourishing each “act” of creation from one to the other, he jointly amplified this creativity.

...At the same time, he embraced the world and industries of advertising, music, theater and cinema at different levels of creativity and responsibility.

...Leading like a weaving, this multi-body work with a thread of happy subsistence, in a life of perpetual advancement. ...Linking very often, always developing, constantly projecting, in the transversal perspective, this long-term "movement".

Today, he leads all the battles head-on in the balance of an almost musical dialogue...And in short! ...To simply make a work.
