Sean Hemmerle Art
American, b. 1966
Sean Hemmerle was born in 1966 in Tempe. Hemmerle is a New York based photographer whose work ranges from international conflict zones to deserted industrial towns in the United States. After serving in the U.S. Army, he attended the University of Miami and earned an MFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York in 1997. His conflict images span over 10 years, beginning with the World Trade Center collapse and continuing with sites such as Kabul, Baghdad, Gaza, Juarez and Beirut. Closer to home, Hemmerle has created award-winning photographs that reflect the pathos and poetry of U.S. Rust Belt areas in Detroit, Pittsburgh, Toledo, Gary and Albany.

This color photograph by Sean Hemmerle taken in Manhattan 2020 features a woman and little dog, who have been photographed, caught, in the "decisive moment" crossing a sign, and obscuring it. Not only does this sign eclipsing change it's meaning, the composition of the photograph is mostly abstract horzontal lines created by the garage door. And also, the portly woman in the mask with a tiny dog wearing a red vest...

Administrator, Kabul, 2002

12"x12"
In Sean Hemmerle’s poignant photographic series “THEM”, a portrait series of Iraqis and Afghans.
Each subject is portrayed frontally with no direction from the artist, allowing the individuals photographed to (re)present themselves. After witnessing the 9/11 attacks Hemmerle felt another response to these events was necessary and travelled to Afghanistan and Iraq where he shot a series of portraits. His resulting images are compassionate studies of people under attack by his own government.
The past five days out of Kabul were enlightening. Initially, the purpose of my adventure was to photograph the battlefields, minefields, and remaining architecture of a country surviving more than 20 consecutive years of warfare. A Mujahideen soldier who had served in the north under Ahmad Shah...

Pointe - underwater photograph - archival pigment print 24x18"
By Alex Sher
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
Four years ago I wrecked my sailboat and was self-medicating with vodka at a Russian restaurant when I suddenly noticed a cute girl hanging from the ceiling right above my glass. She was not only beautiful, she was a dancer too, and she agreed to model for me underwater.
Two days later, if you stopped by my pool you’d see a fully dressed ballerina with her hands underwater and me wriggling at the bottom around her dance e shoes. I kept asking her to tie and untie her pointe hypnotized by the small hands entwined in ribbons and light. I took quite a few pictures that day. This one is my favorite.
Original gallery quality archival pigment print signed by the artist.
Limited edition of 24
