Swedish-born, NYC-residing photographer Kristofer Dan-Bergman was raised in a theatre family. He started as a photojournalist and moved into commercial and advertising photography with clients including Clarins, Kay Jewelers, At&T and Tag Heuer.

His personal projects are an exploration in the discipline and the universe. His first exhibit, entitled ‘Touch’, looked into his relationship with stones. Many more followed (’S_PACE’, ‘allONE’, ‘Wall(k)’, ’Bo(a)rd').

Kristofer’s documentary stories include 'Garissa' (Kenya), 'Karen People of Burma', and his latest 'Evidence' (Eastern Africa). His work has been exhibited in several Museums (Fotografiska-Sweden, MOCADA-New York) and galleries.

Awards include Communication Arts, Graphis and AI-AP. ‘Away’ and ’S_PACE’ were featured last year in the Italian fine art magazine Gente di Fotografia with a seven-page spread.

Mitchel Gray - over 100 covers, over 1000 editorials, ads, and web pages, 2 best-selling coffee table books, several NYC (and elsewhere) art gallery shows, and a bunch of videos. 

Bodies - 'In Action', 'At Rest', and 'Intertwined' have been one of the two major focuses of Mitchel’s work. The second has been portraits- celebrities, athletes, models, performers, and real people. 

The images included in this issue of Showcase Magazine are all new and help to round out the overall portfolio. The new 'Bodies in Action' photos feature NFL and NBA players, and a Winter Olympics athlete, along with an up and coming, very special singer/song writer. The final image is a bit more personal but very consistent with Mitchel’s strengths. It harkens back to his lingerie days. Note that in each photo that appears to have more than one person in it, it is actually the same person in competition with himself. Of course, that is not the case with the last photo.
