The work of Cape Town based photographer Gregor Röhrig, calls to mind a quote from Alfred Stieglitz; “In photography there is a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality”.
Gregor is a South African with German heritage. The self-taught lens man, who has exhibited both locally and internationally, specializes in fine art photography. His current portfolio spans four continents.
His photographic services include private commissions, street and people photography and exclusive pictures for corporate use.
Röhrig’s private commissions, which are based on either high-profile events or famous faces, go beyond mere documenting. His style is candid, rather than posed portraits, discreetly capturing his subjects, their reactions and interactions. Photos are shot in black & white, using only natural and ambient light.
His people and street photography is spontaneous, edgy and irreverent. Working in both colour and black & white, his photojournalistic style is distinctive.
Röhrig’s work sells mostly to private collectors and clients, resulting in his photographs hanging in homes throughout the world. He also produces limited edition pictures for corporate use such as Macquarie Bank.
The Gregor Röhrig Collection is a series of Limited Edition Prints, individually numbered and signed by the artist. To validate the investment, each print is accompanied with a certificate of authenticity issued by the artist. Artworks are printed on 200gsm fine art watercolour paper.
Private commissions are undertaken within the artist’s field of photography.
