About Gerald Holubowicz Photojournalist New York

I’m a French freelance photojournalist, based in New York since 2006, working for almost 10 years, specializing in news, portraits and event imagery.

After studying Law and Journalism in France, I worked with the photo agency Abaca Press as staff photographer for almost 3 years in the 2nd largest city of France. I used to cover major French political rally, the last presidential campaign, social and economic news as well as entertainment events.

My work has been published by most of the French preeminent publications such as:

• l‘Express, le Point, VSD, le Nouvel Observateur
• Le Figaro Magazine, Le Monde, l’Expansion, Gala
•  Point de Vue among others.

In September 2006, I moved to New York and, after a brief stint with Abaca USA and Gamma Press, joined Polaris Images as Contributing Photographer for two years. I covered the U.N General Assemblies, the Pope visit in New York, the economic crisis and Wall Street, the Presidential Campaign, and a lot of Movie Premiere amid a lot of other different stories. My work has been published in the main magazines and websites in USA such as:

• Life, Business Week, Sport Illustrated, Newsweek
• Portfolio, Vanity Fair, the New York Magazine, Rolling Stones
• Us Weekly, In Touch and several other publications in the world.

In the 2010 series “Sortir du Cadre” (Think outside the box) I’ve explored the economy of the new media and the photo industry. I’ve studied the new opportunities offered to our generation by analyzing the different economic models we could embrace to significantly change the status quo in this industry. I’ve since discovered the transmedia storytelling, the interactive documentary (idoc) and adapted my professional path to embrace these new and exciting narrative forms.

I now focus my efforts to develop new projects involving editorial transmedia techniques.
