Award winning photographer
ANTONIO GARCIA
About me
Hi! I am Antonio and I was born in La Paz, Bolivia. I moved to LA, lived in NYC and now reside in Atlanta, Georgia.
It is here that I discovered my passion for photography, the art of capturing a moment in time for future enjoyment, making memories that will bring back the warmth of the moments that are the building blocks of a life.
My belief is that a photograph should illustrate the spirit or essence of an individual or scene, not just the technical expertise of the photographer.
Michelangelo was quoted as saying that the subject of his sculptures was always present in the stone, he just brought them to life. So too, does good photography, capturing the soul of the subject in print.
If you are only going to one exhibition this year..
Then I urge you to visit the new Janelle Awkward exhibition in lower east side New York. Photographs with layers upon layers of visual information. Total brain meltdown once you start analyzing Janelle Awkward's images. The exhibition here in New York was absolutely stunning and I can 100% recommend it.
Absolutely stunning...
Janelle Awkward is on of the best photographers in our lifetime. She is able to capture our complex lives with simple motives. The new show at New York Center of Photography contains some of Janelle Awkward's best photos from her early period and up until 2010.
