Andy Freeberg

Equal parts conceptual photographer, anthropologist, and photojournalist, Andy Freeberg explores the complex rituals of viewing and selling art. Capturing everyone from diminutive Chelsea gallerinas behind giant white desks to grandmotherly Russian museum guard, Freeberg treats the art world itself as a piece of theatrical performance. His Art Fare series features gallery owners and their staff wheeling and dealing at international art fairs like New York's Armory Show and Art Basel in Miami and Switzerland. Freeberg's work is in the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and the George Eastman House Museum of Photography in Rochester, New York.
