He will be abandoned by his mother a year after his birth and adopted by Maurice Désiré Bourdin, who will then take care of his education. From 1948 to 1949, he will be trained in photography during his military service, in the air force in Dakar, Senegal. In 1950, back to civilian life, he exhibited his drawings and paintings in a Parisian gallery. In 1951, he will meet the painter and photographer Man Ray with whom he will become friends. In 1952, at the gallery 29, rue de Seine in Paris, Guy Bourdin held his first photographic exhibition, with a catalog prefaced by Man Ray. In 1953 and 1954, he again exhibited his photographs as well as his drawings under the pseudonym of Edwin Hallan. At the start of his career, he was quickly encouraged by Michel de Brunhoff, editor-in-chief of “Vogue France”. His first photos will be published in the February 1955 issue of Vogue, then under the direction of Edmonde Charles-Roux, struck by the images that the young photographer had presented to him, said about him: "He looked like a a schoolboy, and his shots of naked men and women, showing only their backs or posteriors to the camera. The chosen subject was far from what could have interested "Vogue", but the quality of the work was exceptional. Touched by the talent of the young man, he will be hired and will very quickly become the official photographer of "Vogue". Guy Bourdin's first series of photography will be a subject on hats, the first image presented a Balenciaga hat with a small veil, with on the face of the model a dead fly but which seemed very alive. Other images will be taken in a butcher's shop, the model and her hat posing in front of calves' heads with their tongues hanging out. Bourdin will then work for the magazine "Vogue" for 30 years, until 1987. He will become a recognized photographer in the world of fashion and advertising. His advertising campaigns for Charles Jourdan, from 1967 to 1981, will make him known to the general public. In 1961, Guy Bourdin will marry Solange Gèze and will have a son, Samuel in 1967. In 1967, he will collaborate with the magazine "Harper's Bazaar" and his photos will be published in the very young magazine "Photo". In 1972 he worked for the version of "Vogue Italia" and "English Vogue" in 1974. He will also sign regular publications for "Marie-Claire, or even "Biba", and will carry out numerous advertising campaigns for Charles Jourdan, Gianfranco Ferré, Claude Montanta, Chanel. In 1985, finding it totally useless, he refused the Grand Prix National de la Photographie awarded to him by the Minister of Culture. On the other hand in 1988, Bourdin will accept with the sponsorship of Annie Leibovitz, the "Infinity Award" awarded by the "International Center of Photography" in New York, for his 1987 advertising campaign for the Chanel brand. Less known than William Klein or Helmut Newton, Guy Bourdin sticks to the same surrealist movement. Worthy heir to Man Ray, whose assistant and friend he was at the beginning of the 50s, the photographer speaks about his concern for perfection, his desire to mix dream and reality, from his first shots. The extreme sensuality of the images mixed with surreal stagings has revolutionized the field of fashion photography. A great fashion and advertising photographer, Guy Bourdin marked the photography of the 60s and 70s with legendary images. He cared little for his aura, even less for his heritage, and lived in complete anonymity. Many of her photos, such as Madonna's "Hollywood" music video, were directly inspired by her work.
