Jürgen Teller Jürgen Teller is a famous German photographer, known for his shocking style, in which he often goes beyond the generally accepted framework of beauty. He has collaborated with publications such as Vogue, Purple, i-D, and has shot ad campaigns for Céline, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Adidas, and Vivienne Westwood. The iconic photographer Jürgen Teller is known for portraits shot in an intentionally “random” manner. His “amateur” aesthetics had a huge impact on fashion photography. Teller is not at all interested in where the line is between high art and craft, or even between art and “not art”. The question is what is considered quality work. For a German artist in the first place – the ability to capture the very essence of the heroes: their soul, mood and emotions, their temperament and charisma. As the last one is the quality of the shooting itself. He moved to London in the mid-80s after studying at the Munich School of Photography, Jürgen Teller began his career by filming for music magazines – it was through the prism of the rock scene that he perceived both fashion and art.
