INTRODUCTION
YellowKorner was created in 2006 by two friends, Alexandre de Metz and
Paul-Antoine Briat, both passionate about photography since childhood.
From this encounter came an idea and an ambition: to make art photography
accessible for all and YellowKorner the leading publisher of art photography.

YellowKorner wishes to provide an outlet for expression for talents from
various movements in photography. The only requirement is a truly artistic
approach. Contemporary artists thus rub shoulders with the great names in
photography (Eugène Atget, Man Ray, Jean Dieuzaide, Slim Aarons,
Matthieu Ricard, or Yann Arthus-Bertrand), or period photographers
(Kusakabe Kimbei, Nadar, or Léon Gimpel). So YellowKorner is a place
where the great talents of yesterday, today, and tomorrow meet.

Under the aegis of the founders, an art committee comprising a dozen experts
selects YellowKorner photographs. Each member of this committee is an
expert in a specific photography movement, ranging from 1880 to the present
day. As talent scouts, they are also in charge of selecting the most gifted
young international hopefuls of their generation in the field of art
photography. A number of these artists, who were once yesterday’s hopefuls,
are now ranked among the most acclaimed photographers of today.
YellowKorner was thus able to showcase the likes of Laurent Baheux,
Formento+Formento, or Lee Jeffries, early in their careers.
THE DESIGNERS
XARIS APERGI (JEWELLERY DESIGNER)                                                    INTRODUCTION
Xaris Apergi studied Architecture and Engineering at the Metsovion
Polytechnic ( National Technical University of Athens ), and has worked as a
freelance architect, specializing in renovation of classical buildings. She also
studied marble carving at the Jean Francois atelier of sculpture in Paris, and the
renown Filippotes marble workshop in Vrilissia, Attica. She has also learned
moulding and classical figurative sculpture at the Armakolas workshop in
Varnava, Attica.

Xaris Apergi speaks fluently English and French, has studied piano, ballet, and
has a degree in flamenco dance ( Sociedad de Baile Español ).Xaris loves poetry,
classical music and dance, and currently lives and creates her unique pieces of
Art, in Plaka, next to the ancient Agora of Athens.
Her work is inspired by her love for geometry of the ancient Greek temples and
in particular, the mathematical aesthetic concept of the Golden Ratio, by the
divine beauty of Nature, and the etymology of the magnificent ancient Greek
language. Just as her work as an architect, she combines classical and modern
elements, juxtaposing solid versus void spaces, thus creating harmonious objects
characterized by voluminous weightlessness gracefully adorning the human
body.
All her collections are being produced in Greece by top experts of the field, and
are made using precious metals and gemstones, combining ancient techniques
with the latest computer technology. Her work delivers the God from within,
attracting as a magnet the positive content of the human soul, in an ascent to
the divine.
