Underwater; The photography of Gabriele Viertel

The german artist based in the Netherlands has been completely devoted to photography only since 2011 as a fulltime artist, followed by a rapid rise as a highly successful photographer

The german artist based in the Netherlands has been completely devoted to photography only since 2011 as a fulltime artist, followed by a rapid rise as a highly successful photographer, awards in the category of fine art and international exhibitions.

Her amazing portfolio is mainly composed of underwater taken pictures, conserving the elegance of classical photography and adding, at the same time, that surprising, yet mysterious, surrealistic element. The influence of passion for performing arts often is reflected in elements of dance.Gabriele Viertel keeps simplicity in composition with a focus on the central subject. The works of art of female portraits are ones of striking beauty, managing to transmit intense emotions to their viewer. Gabriele’s work currently is represented by Art + Commerce, NY and Subject Matter Gallery, Tokyo. [Official Website]
