Considered one of the most important photographers of his generation, Teller has successfully navigated both the art world and commercial photography since beginning his career in the late 1980s. Working across different genres of photography, Teller has shot fashion campaigns for luxury brands as well as editorials for prominent art and fashion publications.


In 2003, Teller was awarded the Citibank Prize for Photography, London, and in 2018, he received the Special Presentation Infinity Award from the International Center of Photography, New York. His work has been exhibited internationally, including solo shows at Fondation Cartier pour l’art Contemporain, Paris (2006); Institute of Contemporary Art, London (2013); Bundeskunstalle, Bonn (2016); Martin-Gropius-Bau, Berlin (2017); Grand Palais Ephémère, Paris (2023); Triennale, Milano (2024).


Teller’s photographs have been acquired by numerous international collections including the Centre Pompidou, Paris; Fondation Cartier pour l’art Contemporain, Paris; International Center of Photography, New York; Le Louvre, Paris and National Portrait Gallery, London. Teller has published over sixty books and was a Professor of Photography at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste Nürnberg 2014–2019.

You’re invited into a series of conversations that feel more like hanging out in a gallery after hours than a formal interview. Talk Art brings together actor Russell Tovey and gallerist Robert Diament, whose shared passion and genuine curiosity create a uniquely accessible doorway into the art world. Each episode unfolds as a relaxed yet insightful chat, pulling back the curtain on creative processes and personal stories. They speak with a wide range of voices-from celebrated artists and influential curators to their own talented friends from fields like music, acting, and journalism-all of whom bring a fresh perspective on why art matters. Tuning into this podcast feels like discovering the stories behind the work, the human connections that fuel creativity, and the simple joy of looking at something familiar in a completely new way. It’s less about art theory and more about the lived experience of art, capturing those moments of wonder that remind us how visual culture shapes and reflects our lives. For a visual companion to the discussions, their Instagram is the perfect place to see the artworks that come up in conversation.
