Philippe Garner, photography specialist | EP62 Subtext & Discourse Art World Podcast

Philippe Garner was born in Aix-en-Provence in 1949. He was brought up in Brighton. After graduating in French and Latin from Bedford College, London, in 1970, he joined Sotheby’s Training Scheme and in 1971 started working as a specialist in late-19th-century and 20th-century decorative arts and in the fledgling field of photographs. He has played an influential role in raising awareness of the significance of our photographic heritage, both through his pioneering auctions and through his activities as a writer and curator.
