Rhapsody in all colors

The Danish photographer Torkil Gudnason has lived in New York since 1978 and built a highly successful career in fashion photography, shooting spreads for all prestigious magazines including Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Marie Claire, Vanity Fair, Tatler, and Esquire as well as campaigns for many major cosmetics producers and fashion houses. Gifted with a sensitive eye for shapes and colors and an inexhaustible zest for experimentation, Gudnason has also created a distinctive oeuvre in art photography. For example, he arranged plants and blossoms in unconventional compositions he then captured in breathtakingly luminous pictures.
