Catherine Ceresole

1956 - 2023
Lived in Rolle

Catherine and Nicolas Ceresole moved to New York in 1979, attracted by the city's artistic effervescence. Nicolas trained as a sound engineer, while Catherine photographed the concerts and backstage scenes of the emerging no-wave and punk scene. Their immersion allowed them to rub shoulders with artists such as Sonic Youth, the Swans, Lydia Lunch, Glenn Branca and the Beastie Boys. Catherine captures these moments with a unique sensitivity. Returning to Switzerland after twelve years, she consolidates her reputation in the field of music photography.
