A photographer by trade and passion since 1989, Éric TOURNERET is now known the world over as the photographer of bees. Having spent his entire childhood near Annecy, Éric was made aware of the beauty of the world around him from an early age. It was at the age of 17 that he discovered photography in detail through the world of fashion and advertising.

In 2004, he explored new horizons and took an interest in beekeeping. His photographs were noticed and exhibited in 2006 at the Orangerie du Sénat. A first book was also published: "Le peuple des abeilles".
Éric continued his travels, diving into the heart of beehives around the world. The wealth of his discoveries enabled him to share his passion with a wide audience through his second book, "Cueilleurs de miel".
Eager to discover new things, the photographer explored new countries such as Slovenia, Ethiopia, the Republic of Congo, Canada and Brazil. This 8-year journey enabled him to publish "The Honey Routes" in 2015 and "The Genius of Bees" in 2017.

Discover these magnificent works from Tuesday to Saturday, 10am to 1pm and 2pm to 6pm.
