Miami, Sao Paulo, Vienna and New York City are only a few of the stops on Gerhard Stochl’s journey through the world of skateboarding. His job as a photographer for top skateboarding magazines in the United States and Europe has offered him the opportunity to document the sport’s cultural spread across the globe. Born in Vienna, he now resides in Manhattan, where he shoots for magazines like i-D and Dazed & Confused and does commercial work for Nike, DC Shoes, Carhartt Europe and Zoo York. The artist’s work emphasizes the special relationship between skateboarders and their urban surroundings. Stochl’s skill lies in combining landscape, architecture and tricks to present a complete work of art. In doing so, he consciously separates himself from most of skateboarding photography.
