Early life and education
Dieuzaide was born on 20 June 1921 in Grenade, Haute-Garonne,[1] and at 13 was given a cardboard Coronet 6 × 9 camera. He attended secondary schools in Toulouse, Bordeaux, Cannes and Nice and during WW2 he photographed while in training camps in 1942 and documented young people in Provence. From this period, he signed much of his work ‘Yan’, his Resistance nickname, out of a concern that photography might not be a respectable occupation.[2] On the liberation of Toulouse he decided to make photography his vocation.
Career
Commissioned in 1944 to produce documentary work by the Presidence du Conseil, Dieuzaide set up his first studio and made one of the first portraits of General de Gaulle.In 1946 following his exhibition at the Salon de la Bibliothèque National Editions Arthaud hired him to produce La Gascogne.
His son Michel, also a photographer, was born 11 December 1951.
He is famous for his 1951 portrayal of Salvador Dalí swimming at Cadaqués, his moustache decorated with daisies,[1] and for the 1954 Life magazine assignment to photograph a tightrope walker couple's wedding for which he climbed astride the shoulders of one of the performers. He was profiled in 1964 in a television profile Chambre Noire by M. Tournier.
Dieuzaide was a photographer in the French Humanist style and a member of Le Groupe des XV, and later of Les 30 x 40, and was the founder of the group 'Libre Expression', also practicing abstraction. Though Dieuzaide began as a photojournalist it was his travel and architectural photography that appeared in books from the 1950s. In the seventies he created the famous French gallery Le château d’eau, pôle photographique de Toulouse in an old water tower and dominated the photographic culture of the city of Toulouse in south-west France for over two decades.[1]
