Bodies in Action – Metropolitan Magazine
“Bodies In Action” is an ongoing, limited edition art photographic series that legendary Photographer Mitchel Gray began in late 2014. The concept behind the series is to illustrate what the bodies of great athletes are actually doing under all the equipment, padding, and uniforms while they are performing their sport. In each photo in the series that appears to have two people in it, is actually the same person shot competing with themselves. Mr. Gray brings a uniquely artful and dramatic style to his work. Many of the subjects are Olympians or professionals, but all are champion level athletes.
Mitchel has enjoyed the cooperation of the U.S. Olympic Committee and the New York Athletic Club in the creation of “Bodies in Action”. Much of his portrait work in recent years has focused on sports celebrities ranging from Tom Brady to Derek Jeter.
