Anthony Boccaccio
began his
career with National Geographic Magazine. His work has taken him to over
30 countries in as many years. Like most photographers, he is a series
of contrasts... He is probably most known for his beautiful travel
shots, yet while working with the human figure, his sensitivity rivals
that of the great painters. Indeed, his artistic life began as a young
painter trained in the classical manner. He has studied classical piano
at the Eastman School of Music and plays bluegrass banjo. He has taught
photography at the college level and has studied classical sculpture in
Rome, Italy.
“Boccaccio is a straight shooter. You always know where you stand with
him. He speaks his mind and reacts to life on a visceral level. He is
not afraid to take risks in his photography. He follows his instincts
and works constantly to be better. We think of him as part Ansel Adams
and part Hemingway.”
