Born in Jacksonville, Florida, and now recognized as “Hollywood’s favorite photographer,” L.A.–based contemporary artist and filmmaker Tyler Shields has evolved from the “bad boy of photography” with his controversial blood-stained photographic series featuring Lindsay Lohan to the more subtle color-explosive poesy of his “Chromatic” series, and his work featuring Francesca Eastwood (Clint’s daughter) to the fire-starting, bag-sawing antics of a $100,00 Hermès Birkin bag, to the stoic magic Surrealism of “Suspense,” a project shot in the New Mexico desert featuring Franseca Eastwood, Emma Roberts and Lydia Hearst — Shield’s art captures the emergence of an artist and his medium into a more mature overture and output. He is an American image-maker.
Born in 1982, Shields’ work derives from a unique history directing music videos and working with the legendary skateboarding icon Tony Hawk. Mr. Shields has produced images that play with notions of the gaze, power structures, hyper-realism, iconoclastic tendencies and cinematographic practice. He has worked with a roster of ranking members of Hollywood including Mischa Barton, Emma Roberts, Aaron Paul, Demi Lovato, Juno Temple, Shiloh Fernandez and more. Tyler’s output involves various mediums from book publishing The Dirty Side of Glamour in 2011, to a novel entitled Smartest Man, and a cluster of solo shows.
