About the Item

Type-c print on Ilford Ilfoflex Archival Super Gloss, 2004. Signed, dated, titled, and numbered 2/2 on verso. In the series ‘Weights & Measures’ (2003) Andrew George turns his lens towards chance collaborations between man and nature or what he calls “found still-lifes”. He celebrates the often overlooked and mundane and elevates his subjects to distilled moments of ethereal beauty. These images cause one to linger and reflect, and force us to look inward and take stock of not simply what we are looking at but how we see. Artist Andrew George is based in Los Angeles. He recently premiered his latest series of photographic murals entitled Analogies & Metaphors in New York City. Andrew’s work has been in 20 international exhibitions, most recently in Japan and Korea (where accompanying books of his work were published) and Germany. Andrew’s internationally acclaimed photography and interview project, Right, before I die, traveled abroad 7 times and attracted more than half a million visitors at its various venues. Andrew has won numerous awards for his photography and has appeared in The Huffington Post, Vanity Fair, CBS News, The Chicago Tribune, Stern, DesignTAXI, Art Ltd., Quartz, Daily Mail UK, The San Francisco Chronicle, El Mundo, De Standaard, The New Daily, Le Journal de la Photographie, Russia Today, BuzzFeed, The School of Life, Booooooom and Trendhunter, among others. His photographs are in over 90 public and private collections. Andrew received his BA from Bard College, where he double-majored in literature and in film, then received an MFA from Art Center College of Design.
