About Ari Rossner Photography
Ari Rossner is a beauty, fashion and portrait photographer. He has been collaborating with magazines in Paris, London and São Paulo such as Jardin des Modes, Cosmopolitan, Angeline's, l'Officiel and Vogue. He produced advertising campaigns for Kenzo Parfums, Cacharel, Estée-Lauder, Renault and Volkswagen among other well-known brands.
He worked with many advertising agencies, among them Publicis, DDB, CLM, Young & Rubicam, and collaborated with global brands such as L'Oréal, Bourjois, T-Leclerc, Nina-Ricci and, for three years served as lead photographer for Sephora's advertising campaigns.
After some time spent in the world of luxury, the photographer's sensitivity gradually moved towards other subjects, and he found himself more and more attracted to exploring other facets of the human face and those people who tell a story - of themselves, their families, or their country and culture. Rossner calls these subjects "real people", individuals positively anchored in a profound reality. The simplicity of these portraits pervades the frame, as a path one follows in the attempt to close the distance between the soul of man and the world we live in. Nepal, Senegal, Congo and India among other places across the globe have served as way stations along the journey, their populations guides for the photographer. Ari Rossner takes these faces as signs indicating that this indeed is a path worth pursuing.
One significant result of these travels is Ari Rossner's book project, "The Smiles of India", a massive documentation that demonstrates not only the admiration he feels for the Indians he first met in 2004, but an exploration of life itself, beaming from faces and speaking in a universal language.
