TREVOR CLARK, Mallorca
Member Since October 2017
Artist Statement Trevor Clark started as a photographer at the age of 16 as assistant in a London studio - then at the age of 18 joined the Royal Airforce doing aerial, industrial & press photograhpy. Then he was contracted as a promotional photographer on the first ever world cruises - New York to New York in 6 months - visiting 26 countries - shooting all the important sights in the world - Taj Mahal - Pyramids in Egypt and Mexico etc. etc. to be used in brochures promoting these cruises.
After 4 years he returned to London to further his career and gradually eased into advertising and fashion photography - and because his studio was in Soho London - the centre of the English pop-music industry during the swinging sixties - he was photographing all the up-and-coming pop stars - includng the Beatles and RollingStones.
In 1968 he moved to the Spanish island of Mallorca in the Mediterranean to continue his photographic career away from the studio and on permanent location - having available all-year-round sunshine - models already tanned - and the facility to access every type of location... Art directors from advertising agencies in northern Europe could come over to do their photo shoots with everything laid on for them.
This has been a resounding success and during all these years he has been producing thousands of "stock" photos of sunshine ambience subjects to supply the many "stock" picture libraries around the world. He still enjoys living and working on this beautiful island today - with the studio photography of the Beatles and Rolling Stones a distant memory.
