Huger Foote

Art Brokerage: Huger Foote American Artist: b. 1961. Foote received his BA at Sarah Lawrence College. Since, he has apprenticed with the esteemed photographer Annie Leibovitz, established a commercial photography career and developed an extensive group of collectors, both public and private, around the world. In 2011 he received a commission from the New York Times to capture the city during springtime. Foote is notorious for wandering back alleys, deserted roadways, abandoned lots and desolate commercial areas with his camera. He is a keen observer of the commonplace, and captures that overlooked, unusual beauty through his lens. Whether the focus is on chicken wire entwined with an overgrowth of bright yellow wildflowers or the shape and texture of cherry red cushions, he demonstrates the value of giving everyday objects a second look as works of art.
