Applying his experience in commercial
photography to images like Fuerte and Katia,
which encapsulates his creative f lare and an
editorial style, Bergauer has found a way to apply
the technicalities involved in his professional
photography to his creative work.
With prestigious marketing and advertising
awards from organizations like the Salzburger
Landespreis, Bergauer has achieved worldwide
recognition in a trade where photographers
rarely gain the freedom to apply artistry to their
commercial work.
Currently, Bergauer is labouring over a book
that explores life on leper colonies, a project
that he has been following for six years. In
the meantime, he continues to show his work
at exhibitions and accumulate new techniques
in photography, ensuring that his dynamic
creativity never “stands still.”
