About ALBERT WATSON 2019 BERLIN

Albert Watson has made his mark as one of the world’s most successful and prolific photographers. Since he began his career in 1970, he has blended art, fashion, and commercial photography. His work is among the most iconic images ever seen. From portraits of Alfred Hitchcock and Steve Jobs to beauty shots of Kate Moss, his diversity and body of work are unparalleled. Watson also captures Las Vegas landscapes and still-life photographs of King Tutankhamun artifacts.

His striking photographs and stunning hand-made prints are featured in galleries and museums around the globe. The photo industry bible, Photo District News, named Albert one of the 20 most influential photographers of all time. This ranks him alongside Irving Penn and Richard Avedon, among others.

Albert has won numerous honors, including a Lucie Award, a Grammy Award, and three Andy’s. He also received a Der Steiger Award, a Hasselblad Masters Award; and the Centenary Medal, a lifetime achievement award from the Royal Photographic Society. Queen Elizabeth II awarded the Scotsman an Order of the British Empire (OBE) in June 2015. This was for his lifetime contribution to the art of photography.
