Rip Hopkins

biographY

Rip Hopkins is a British photographer and has been a member of Agence VU’ since 1996. He is based in Brussels (Belgium).

A graduate of the École Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle (ENSCI) in Paris, Rip Hopkins began his career as a photographer in collaboration with Médecins Sans Frontières. For almost 10 years, his photographs – on the edge of documentary and reporting – gave voice to the world’s most endangered populations. At the same time, he carried out some more personal documentary projects, in particular on the gypsies in Europe, in Uzbekistan and in Tajikistan.

Driven by multiple ambitions, Rip Hopkins seeks new spaces of expression, first in France, then in Belgium. From seemingly banal subjects, he extracts an infinite number of photographic possibilities and incongruities with humour, off-beatness and poetry. Beyond social representation, his visual investigations are structured by a dramatic tension close to the absurd. In the background, his dramatizations disrupt all forms of propriety, to enter a subtle in-betweenness: between misbehaviour and mirth. Detached, even high up in these complex settings, the human being – both in front of and behind the lens – collides with a profound self-deprecation.

Rip Hopkins offers mischievous and playful portraits of the descendants of the beheaded of the French Revolution (“La Révolution en héritage”), of the Mansonians and their particular link to the horse (“Chevaleresque”), of the British settled in the Perigord (“Another Country”), of the contemporary Belgian aristocracy (“Belgian Blue Blood”). He also documents the Canadian identity (“Canada Canada” at the invitation of the French Embassy and on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the confederation), the “Guardians” in the Alpes-Maritimes and all the professions linked to the ostrich feather on three continents (South Africa, United States, France, Belgium and Italy).

From the representation of his work in a dozen monographs, to the regular exhibition of his work on the international stage, Hopkins is part of prestigious public and private collections. These include the Guerlain Foundation (France), the HSBC Foundation (France), LaSalle Bank (USA), the Musée de lʼElysée (Lausanne), the Musée dʼ Orsay (Paris), the Centre Pompidou (Paris), the Centre National dʼ audiovisuel (Luxembourg), the FRAC Ile de France and the Fonds national dʼart contemporain (France), etc. His work has also been rewarded with renowned distinctions: Ilford Prize, Kodak Prize for Young Photoreporters, HSBC Prize, Bourse Fiacre, Prix Scam, etc. He is represented by Le Réverbère (Lyon) Gallery and by LT2.
