Glen Luchford a young photographer who has revived the British commercial photography in the early 1990's in magazines such as ID and person. The image of his company's 1997 fashion house Prada has received considerable acclaim. Luchford work until now has been mysterious and shown on the pictures from the movie that the motivation of the protagonist must be clarified and completed by the viewer.
The 1990’s marked a major shift in the world of fashion photography and brought with it a new sense of realism and spontaneity. Part of the new series “British influence”, Steidldangin presents the monograph of Glen Luchford, whose artistic production came to maturity in the period.
Luchford’s earliest photographs prefigure the gritty, found-light aesthetic that defined the first half of the 90s. They range from quiet black-and-white portraits of musical icons such as Ian Brown and Chris Robinson to more aggressive street shots of Kate Moss that capture the spirit of a seedy New York on the verge of extinction. But as previously stark contrasts between artistic and commercial work softened, Luchford’s from-the-hip naturalism gave way to a style with Hitchcockian precision
