Biography

Jan von Holleben was born in 1977 in Cologne and brought up in the southern German countryside, he lived most of his young life in an alternative commune and identifies a strong connection between the development of his photographic work. When he was 13 years old, he followed his father's photographic career by picking up a camera and experimenting with all sorts of "magical tricks", developing his photographic imagination and skills with friends and family and later honing his technique in commercial settings. After pursing studies in Freiburg, he moved to London. Then, became submerged within the London photographic scene, where he worked as picture editor, art director and photographic director., He quickly set up Young Photographers United and photodebut, followed more recently by the Photographer's Office. Holleben's body of photographic work focusing on the 'homo ludens', is itself built from a playful integration of pedagogical theory with his own personal experiences of play memories of childhood.
