Martin Schoeller was born in Munich in 1968. His training followed German tradition: the portraits of August Sander and the concrete school of Bechers. He moved to the USA in 1992, where he became an assistant to Annie Leibovitz. In 1999 he was engaged by the New Yorker establishing a stable collaboration and developing a very personal portrait technique using close up. Important actors such as Jack Nicholson, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, politicians such as Bill Clinton and pop stars such as Prince and Britney Spears as well as ordinary people have stood before his camera. Each portrait possesses incredible strength and the rare ability to expose the subject, thus creating a special, unique anthropology, a gallery of “types” seeking analogies and differences, similar features or unfathomable distances. This expression, at zero degrees produces a range of personalities which are all similar yet all different.
