“ I knew one thing - that whatever I was going to do with my life I wanted to love it and believe in it”~ Kurt Markus We miss our friend and artist Kurt who passed away recently. When you look at Kurt’s extensive body of work the passion he poured into each specific project shines through. He enjoyed a more than 25 year extraordinary collaboration with the great model Christy Turlington. It seems so much more than a simple model / photographer connection. Together they produced images of such beauty and feeling that you feel that Kurt was telling a deeply felt story rather than just producing an image that illuminates the clothes.Courtesy of Peter Fetterman Gallery
