In New York, Staley-Wise Gallery celebrates the long and illustrious career of American photographer Kurt Markus, known for the distinct monochrome style he has applied to everything from lyrical landscape imagery to portraiture and fashion photography. A master of encapsulating his subjects’ spirit on camera, the exhibition’s highlights include a series of striking portraits captured in Savannah, Georgia for Mirabella magazine in 1994, Markus’ captivating documentation of lithe boxing stars in Cuba and New York, and a number of beautiful nude studies paying homage to the work of Edward Weston.
