Philip Glass
In 1995, while visiting New York, Victor Boullet managed to secure a portrait sitting with the composer Philip Glass in his New York townhouse. In âPhilip Glass 5th October 1995 New York Cityâ, Boullet reveals the entire unedited portrait session including every frame, along with his contact sheets. In this sequence of photographs and Boulletâs accompanying essay, which amusingly recounts the story behind his morning with Philip Glass, Boulletâs portrayal of the composer and his own thoughts, mishaps and insecurities coincide to create a double portrait of the artist and his sitter. âPortraying someone connected to culture or fame can be a way of climbing a social ladder just by being associated with the sitter, I have used this to my advantage, but this was not the case that day I rang Philip Glass, I was a fan and bored.
