Matt Licari
Matt Licari is a New York City born-and-raised photographer who has been making photographs since 2003.
Licari’s early pictures depicted close friends, family and street scenes in his native neighborhood of The Bronx. This combination of intimate portraiture and peripheral environs remains a cornerstone of his work today.
Before entering the commercial and fashion industries, Licari received his BFA in Photography from SUNY Purchase worked in the image archives of the Richard Avedon Foundation and the Guggenheim Museum, as a photo-lab technician, and as a retoucher on campaigns for top brands, including Aveda, La Mer, Vince Camuto, and Lord & Taylor.
Since 2011 Licari has employed a dualist approach to imagery, creating both clean and crisp studio photographs alongside intimate, raw on-location pictures, often trading between the specialized technique of large-format film and handheld digital cameras. This workflow allows him to seamlessly toggle between styles and deliver a variety of powerful work to commercial brands and editorial magazines alike. His lively personality and enthusiasm for the arts has enabled him to make compelling images of high-profile celebrities like Tom Hanks, Pete Townshend, R.E.M, Blondie, Elvis Costello, Kathy Griffin and many more.
Licari lives in New York and regularly guest lectures at a circuit of NYC and East Coast universities and mentors photography students.
