Mark Seliger (Fotografie : Portfolio No. 48)

This collection showcases the work of acclaimed New York City photographer Mark Seliger. Originally from Amarillo, Texas, Seliger's work bears an unmistakably theatrical sensibility. Each work is its own little universe, complete with characteristic details and back story. His iconoclastic portraits of celebrities such as Bob Dylan, Kurt Cobain and Nicole Richie, reveal their familiar faces in new and startling ways. Equally at home in color or black-and-white, Seliger's frenetic energy echoes his experience as a director of music videos. Currently under contract to Cond?? Nast Publications, he has shot numerous covers for GQ, Vanity Fair, Vogue Hommes, and British ELLE, and was Chief Photographer for Rolling Stone.
