General info :
Christopher Griffith (born in Toronto, Canada, the son of a British father) is a photographer.
He immigrated to the East Coast when he was two and was raised in Boston, Massachussetts.
He started his career as a research biochemist and while in a postgrad program in London he fell into photography in the early 1990s.
Initially splitting his time between London and Paris working in the fashion industry, Christopher’s work was regularly featured in Paris Vogue, Glamour, and L’Uomo Vogue along with campaigns for Trussardi, Etro and Issey Miyake.
He returned to the states in 1998 and embarked on what would be a career changing journey across America to document the landscape with a minimalist approach that has become his signature style, with the resulting monograph States (powerhouse 2000).
After his book States was published, his career changed overnight from shooting fashion constantly to shooting a few big ad campaigns for Nike, Heineken, Lexus, Deutsche Bank, Chrysler, SWISS Airlines, Delta Airlines, IBM, and Sony, leaving extra time for personal art projects, with the subsequent monographs FALL (powerhouse 2004) a macro analysis of the stunning show of colour and texture in Autumn leaves, and BLOWN (Auditorium Editions 2009) an abstract study of blown out tire treads collected from the highways across America.
He currently lives in New York.
