Place of origin |
Garner’s interest in photography and design began as a child. He went on to become a specialist in both fields for major auction houses, while also pursuing a personal photographic practice. With formal precision, his street photographs capture the saturated colours of advertising and the sleek, lustrous surfaces of cars. Made during his many travels to the US, they show the iconic status of cars in American culture through British eyes.
