Gary

Gary Lupton grew up amidst major cultural and political upheaval and reinvention in an apartheid Cape Town, South Africa. Those images of hope, often juxtaposed against devastation, which colored his daily upbringing are reflected in his photography today, which strives to convey a sense of the beautiful and interesting, be it familiar or alienating.

 

Gary's years at school in Cape Town were spent studying design, and after receiving his diploma he decided to pursue photography as his artistic vehicle. After moving to London and studying more, he finally made it to the city he dreamed of working in  - New York - where he spent several years honing his talent by working for some of the biggest names in the industry.

 

Gary particularly enjoys engaging in the strategic process behind client creative campaigns in order to help wordlessly convey a message or emotion, and has worked with corporations ranging from fashion, to real-estate, to healthcare.
