Biography

Hans Feurer was born in Switzerland in 1939.[1] After studying art there, he worked as a graphic artist, illustrator and art director for several advertising agencies in London. In 1966, after buying a Land Rover and leaving for Africa, he decided to embark as a professional photographer. He returned to London, rented a studio, and started working on his photographs. At the end of 1967,[2] Hans Feurer’s work was recognized and his professional career officially launched.[3]

Photography

In 1974, Feurer collaborated with Pirelli Calendar,[4] as well as with famous fashion magazine for their time, Deutsch Sven[5] and English Nova. Both magazines are no longer in print.

In 1983, Feurer had the opportunity to photograph a campaign for French luxury house Kenzo, with renowned model Iman.[6] He is one of the most effectively marked photographers of his generation and is often requested by fashion magazines such as Vogue,[7] Elle, Numero and Another.[8]
