Harvey Benge has been working full time as a camera artist since 1992. He is interested in the international urban social landscape and the notion of parallel lives.

While the main thrust of his work has been through published work, he has also exhibited internationally and has work in major public and private collections. He works from both Auckland and Paris.

Martin Parr bridges the divide between art and documentary photography. His studies of the idiosyncrasies of mass culture and consumerism around the world, his innovative imagery and his prolific output have placed him firmly at the forefront of contemporary art. A member of the international photo agency Magnum, Parr is an avid collector of photobooks and a world authority on the photobook. He lives in Bristol, England.
