Rainer Hosch’s migration from Vienna to New York City and finally Los Angeles has informed the evolution of his photographic practice. In New York City he focused on documenting the streets, observing urban spaces with raw edges and most importantly the people within. The exploration of street photography is rooted in his work as a portraitist.  Hosch’s second solo exhibition featured black and white portraits or more accurately mug shots of popular culture icons. When he arrived in Los Angeles, Hosch and his family moved to Topanga Canyon, removed from the dense urbanity of the city. Rainer Hosch was born in 1970 in Vienna, Austria, and moved to New York in 1997. He studied photography at the Institute for Teaching and Research in Graphic Arts, Vienna, and at UCLA. Rainer Hosch is represented at the National Museum of Photography in Denmark.
