Maurício Abreu

He was born in Coimbra, Portugal, in 1954, and has lived in Setúbal since 1964. Since 1983 he has devoted his time solely to photography and has been involved in various works as a photographer, producer and publisher in the fields of natural and cultural heritage, ethnography and traditional architecture.

About the Artist

His main body of work is about nature, our heritage and the relation between Man and his environment. August Sander, Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, are some of his main references as photographers, but a lot of his imagery comes simply from his surroundings and the inspiration of light.
