Greg Barrett
Vicki Attard, Flashdance
1995

Greg Barrett (1943- ) was one of the most sought-after fashion photographers of the late '70s, and his work appeared in top magazines. Since then he has explored other areas, including short films. Since 1984, Greg has photographed dancers from Australia's premier dance companies, bringing to his photographs of dancers the same discipline as his subjects do to their art. Using few props and costumes, he relies very much on his relationship with each dancer to push the expressive boundaries of the human body. The results of this artistic collaboration are photographs of extraordinary beauty, spontaneity and wit.
