Lorenzo Agius
Celebrity photographer Lorenzo Agius is renowned for his unique, intimate and often comical portraits of the “stars.” The photographer shot to great prominence following his seminal images from the 1996 groundbreaking British film Trainspotting.
Agius has had a colorful affair with “celebrity” over the past two decades. Expertly capturing the character and individuality of each of his sitters, Agius' images flaunt stylistic brilliance and bubble with personality.
From Madonna to Margot Robbie, Agius' body of work portrays the varying and often polar characters of major icons. He tunes into the creativity of his subjects and successfully reflects the mood of the moment; the results are natural, accessible and in each case reflect the artist's eye for light, composition and a strong imagination for narrative.
Whether it be celebrating British culture or capturing the sleek, Hollywood look, Agius' personality is intrinsic to his photography; the mood is always light and refreshing and humor is ever present.
Six of Agius' iconic works are part of the permanent collection at the National Portrait Gallery, London. The artist has been an ambassador for Canon since 2008 and has exhibited at the Getty Gallery, London alongside other notable exhibitions in Moscow, Paris, Cannes and the UAE.
