Richard Langdon has secured a position as one of the world’s leading sports photographers. A graduate of the Arts Institute, he established his prominent yachting photography company, Ocean Images, in 1998. H e will be the first artist to exhibit within the space, with a retrospective of his work at Ocean Images. It promises to illustrate Richard’s unique, contemporary style.
This is the first occasion that Richard has shown work in a gallery setting. H is pictures have been published widely through the yachting press and newspapers, but rarely placed in a frame and hung in a gallery. The Arts Institute is pleased to have collaborated with Richard in selecting and creating an exhibition which exemplifies the technical, creative and enduring quality of his work.
Richard Langdon’s successes include:
Ocean Images client roster boasts many recognised sponsors within the yachting community, including Champagne Mumm, Performance Sailcraft, Spinlock, Audi, O’Neill and Neil Pryde.
