Juergen Teller - Awailable

Juergen Teller: "Cherub, London, 2006", C-type print.
Juergen Teller has been credited not only with changing the face of fashion photography in Britain in the 1990s but producing some of the most compelling and authentic photographic images of recent times.
For this, his first exhibition in Scotland, he selected photographs from the last six years which span the full range of his work, from portraits of other artists, fashion designers, actresses and models - many of them close friends, to his immediate family and images from the Nürnberg series, shot over four seasons near his family home in Bavaria.
'Teller does not employ a casual, opportunistic approach with documentary intention. Instead he creates a highly individual, even weird, view in the telling of personal stories, using his process of looking to fathom what truths might lie beneath the surface.'*Juergen Teller: "Boadicea Vivienne, London, 2006", C-type print.

Juergen Teller was born in Erlangen, Germany in 1964. After a short apprenticeship as a bow-maker he studied at the Fotodesign Academy in Munich from
1984 to 1986, before moving to London to escape national service and learn English. In London, Teller was introduced to the world of fashion photography through assignments for magazines including; i-D, The Face, Index and W which nurtured his highly personal approach to the medium. He is the subject of monographs by Steidl, Taschen and Scalo and has presented numerous solo exhibitions, including; Juergen Teller at The Photographers' Gallery, London (1998): Marchenstüberl at the Fotomuseum, Munich; Folkwang Museum, Essen and Galleria d'Arte Modena, Bologna; Don't Suffer Too Much at Milton Keynes Gallery (2003); I Am Forty at the Kunsthalle, Vienna (2004) and Do You Know What I Mean at the Fondation Cartier pour l'Art Contemporain, Paris (2006) - in addition to group exhibitions at venues including: Tate Modern, London; Haus der Kunst, Munich and Programma Centro de Arte in Mexico. He continues to live and work in London and in 2006 was awarded the Citibank Photography Prize. His work is in numerous European collections; this was his first exhibition in Scotland.Juergen Teller: "Olivier with Snake, London, 2006", C-type print.
