Udo has captured many of the iconic stars and personalities of our time including Catherine Zeta-Jones, Meg Ryan, Salma Hayek, John Legend, Tyra Banks, The Beach Boys, and Usain Bolt, among many others. He also photographed artist legends such as Christo, Richard Meyer, and the late Helmut Newton. Works to be spotlighted will include photographs of Catherine Zeta-Jones, Tyra Banks, Jeffrey Wright, Shark Tank’s Daymond John and Kevin O’Leary, The Jonas Brothers, Meg Ryan, The Beach Boys, Alexander Dreymon, and more.
Inspired by the Baroque painter Caravaggio as well as classic Hollywood Film Noir, his characteristic use of light and shadow dramatizes the scene and creates tension. This tension, along with the capture of a specific moment, seems to allow the viewer to get a glimpse into the soul of the subject, rather than just seeing the two-dimensional surface.
