Jonathan Anderson & Edwin Low

During their collaboration of over 35 years, Anderson & Low (Jonathan Anderson & Edwin Low) have created numerous projects. Their work includes portraiture, architectural studies, nudes, reportage, and abstraction. Their photography is noted for attention to concept, narrative, form, lighting, and printing. Anderson & Low are well known for their projects looking at the process of sports, examining what it takes to be an athlete, and using this as a window into the human condition. They are also noted for questioning the boundaries between photography and other visual arts, and for blurring the lines between fantasy and reality in their projects.

Anderson & Low’s work is included in many collections, including The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Victoria & Albert Museum, London; National Portrait Galleries of both the UK and Australia; Museum of Fine Art, Houston; Cleveland Museum of Art; National Gallery of Australia, Canberra; and Maison Européenne de la Photographie, Paris.

Anderson & Low were official artists for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, with an exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery. Their work was exhibited in the official 2011 Venice Biennale. They have created images relating to both Star Wars and recent James Bond films. Anderson & Low are Honorary Fellowship recipients of the Royal Photographic Society in recognition of their contribution to photography. They have recently been appointed as Visiting Research Fellows and Artists in Residence at Birmingham City University / Birmingham School of Art, which the Guardian newspaper listed as the best photography program in the UK.
