Michel Szulc Krzyzanowski was born in the Netherlands in 1949. He was educated in art and photography at the Art Academy St. Joost in Breda, the Netherlands and at the Koninklijke Academie voor Kunst en Vormgeving in s’-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands. He graduated in 1970 and has been working since then as an independent artist-photographer. His work is exhibited and published worldwide and is represented in the major photographic collections. He has not a particular place to have his base as he is travelling constantly and lives like a nomad.
