For over 35 years, Brazilian photographer Klaus Mitteldorf has been at the forefront of fashion and fine art photography, noted for a visual aesthetic that combines reinvention with a relentless curiosity for the limitations of the medium. Whether in his early photographs from the 1970s documenting the surf culture of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, or his later editorial work for publications such as Vogue Brasil, Mittledorf’s images are celebrations of light and the human form. With 'Next', the artist once again pushes the boundaries of photography, eschewing traditional forms while radically recasting everyday urban scenes into vibrant, graphically layered images that recall the pioneering works of László Moholy-Nagy and Man Ray.

Born in São Paulo in 1953, Klaus Mitteldorf began experimenting with photography when he was 12 years old, after his father gave him his fi rst camera, a Yashica Mimi. In 1974, he began documenting surfers on the beaches in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. His photographic work has been published in magazines such as Vogue, Elle, Playboy, Photo France, Zoom France, Graphis New York, and many other art and photography magazines. Mitteldorf has published ten books and his work has been exhibited internationally. He lives and works in São Paulo.
