Paul Solberg (born 1969) studied anthropology at the University of Cape Town before moving to New York in 1996. Solberg began his photography career with his first published book, Bloom (2005), followed by Puppies Behind Bars (2006), Tyrants + Lederhosen (2011), Tattoos, Hornets & Fire (2012) (together with C. Makos) and his monograph Ten Years In Pictures (2014). He is best known for his acclaimed still life portraits, but the same stillness can also be found in his human subjects, such as the Portrait of Ai Weiwei (2008) and the acclaimed Armed Forces Portraits in Service (2010), which are in collections such as the Elton John Photography Collection and were exhibited at the America House in Kiev in 2017.  Solberg's photographs have appeared in Publisher's Weekly, Le Figaro, CNN, L'Oeil de la Photographie, Interview Magazine, WWD, WSJ Int'l, The Huffington Post and New York Daily News. His work has been exhibited internationally: Museum La Casa Encendida (Madrid), Subte Museum, Galerie Sho Contemporary Art (Tokyo), Galerie Hiltawsky (Berlin), Karl Hutter Fine Art (LA), Peter Marcelle Project (NY) and Galerie Catherine Houard ( Paris).
