Lorenzo Agius Black and White Photography
b. 1962
Celebrity photographer Lorenzo Agius is renowned for his unique, intimate and often comical portraits of the “stars.” The photographer shot to great prominence following his seminal images from the 1996 groundbreaking British film Trainspotting.
Agius has had a colorful affair with “celebrity” over the past two decades. Expertly capturing the character and individuality of each of his sitters, Agius' images flaunt stylistic brilliance and bubble with personality.
From Madonna to Margot Robbie, Agius' body of work portrays the varying and often polar characters of major icons. He tunes into the creativity of his subjects and successfully reflects the mood of the moment; the results are natural, accessible and in each case reflect the artist's eye for light, composition and a strong imagination for narrative.
Whether it be celebrating British culture or capturing the sleek, Hollywood look, Agius' personality is intrinsic to his photography; the mood is always light and refreshing and humor is ever present.
Six of Agius' iconic works are part of the permanent collection at the National Portrait Gallery, London. The artist has been an ambassador for Canon since 2008 and has exhibited at the Getty Gallery, London alongside other notable exhibitions in Moscow, Paris, Cannes and the UAE.

Located in Zurich, CH
ALBERT WATSON (*1942, Scotland) Mick Jagger/Leopard
1992/2011
Chromogenic print
Image 195,6 x 152,4 cm (77 x 60 in.)
Sheet 238,7 x 177,8 cm (94 x 70 in.)
Frame 245 x 185,6 x 6 cm (96 1/2 x 73 1/8 x 2 3/8 in.)

Albert Watson (*1942, Scotland) is a Scottish photographer well known for his fashion, celebrity, and art photography, having shot over 200 Vogue and 40 Rolling Stone covers since the mid-1970s. His photographs are signature, classical, and bold, and in our world of manipulation, Watson prefers the enlargers and the trays; an artist who greatly enriches our perception with his unique photographic view. Photo District News named Watson one of the 20 most influential photographers of all time, along with Richard Avedon and Irving Penn, among others.
Watson shared intimate moments about shooting celebrities like Johnny Depp, 50 Cent and Clint Eastwood and dove into the history behind famous shots like the double exposure of Mick Jagger and the leopard that Watson shot by chance. "The leopard was all over Mick so we had to build a glass partition...
