Henri "Hergo" Godineau (20 July 1951 – 28 January 2020) was a French photographer who began his career in the 1970s.[1] He lived and worked in Paris.
Biography
In 1978, he began working on the photo album Deux enfants sur le chemin, which highlighted the first 20 years of the newspaper Libération.[2] Many of Hergo's photo albums dealt with youth, love, death, gender, cinema, art, and intimacy. In 1995, he became a resident of the Cité internationale des arts, which allowed him to visit artist studios much more frequently. Hergo held a large amount of photographic expositions throughout his career. He died on 28 January 2020.
