Adrian Markis is a professional photographer based in Buenos Aires. With an obsessive passion for artistic creation, he has developed his own dedicated style of photography that combines surrealism with the power of nature. Adrian's artistic goal is to transform reality, to permit the darkness of his images to speak of fears, routines, tensions and hidden beauty.

He combines an artistic career with work for advertising agencies, magazines, art galleries, music and personal photo projects. He recently finished a new project entitled 'Living Death' that looks at skeletons 'living' in cemeteries, with the idea of "transmitting the pain that was inside them as people". The project was produced between Buenos Aires and Montevideo.

Adrian currently works for agencies including Grey, BBDO, TBWA, Dentsu and Ogilvy, as well as clients Adidas, Toyota, Pepsi, Haagen Dazs, Standard Bank, Itaú Bank, Sadia, Issue and Roche. In this Showcase he presents a short resumé of his work. Visit his website for more information.
