-------------------------------------------
DIE FORM has been able to impose years after years a music and an image of the most completed, in the practice of the "multimedia intervention" (music, performance, photography and cinema/video).
Since 1978, besides multiple participations in international projects, about thirty albums, many video clips & films and two art books allow to appreciate their particular universe : industrial and organic electronic, tortured neo-classic and experimental constructions to more accessible compositions (based on rhythms, cuts, sampling, treated voices and sequences). Always motivated by passions, Philippe F. and Eliane P. exhibit the ultimate beauty of love, at the boundary of the interdicts.
"Out-standard constructions where is added a mechanical dimension to the sensuality of the female voices and melodies."
DIE FORM a su imposer au fil des années une musique et une image des plus aboutis dans la pratique du "théâtre de l'intervention multimedia" (musique, performance, photographie et cinéma/vidéo).
Depuis 1978, outre de multiples participations à des projets internationaux, une trentaine d'albums, de nombreux vidéo-clips & films et deux livres d'art permettent d'en apprécier l'univers particulier : électronique industrielle et organique, néo-classique torturé et constructions expérimentales ou compositions plus accessibles (à base de rythmes, collages, sampling, voix traitées et séquences électroniques).
"Constructions hors-normes où s’ajoute une dimension mécanique à la sensualité des voix féminines et des mélodies."

Philippe FICHOT
"Photographer for more than 25 years. His work is almost always in black & white, described as being, "an exploration of the subconscious of eroticism and of the dark poetry of the human body." An artist whose work continually seeks to expose the ultimate beauty, Philippe Fichot has mastered the use of light and shade, as well as darkroom manipulation, to an extreme degree.
Each photograph is timeless, like seen through old mirrors, and an esthetic offense bordering on the prohibited. The figures float between life and death in obscure fluids - perhaps drowned, or perhaps sleeping and always exposed to the eye of the voyeur. Eroticism (and sex) are in this case not excuses for exhibitionism, but a reflex of the soul which emerges from obscurity : absolute phantoms whose sensitive image commences to exist...
All these dream visions are projections of the theatre of the spirit. They are put on stage with precision and then reprocessed in the dark room by hand, engendering an unknown, microscopical and abstract reality under the surface of the picture. The ultimate dimension of passing time emerges... petrified beauty, a soiled and diaphanous icon."
