Nicole Herzog-Verrey (Zurich, 1947) studied photography at the Regent Street Polytechnic (Westminster University 1968-1970) and later graduated in Fine Arts at the Universidad Complutense Madrid (2005). After freelancing as a photojournalist in Switzerland and South America, she settled in Madrid in 1974 and made a career as a graphical correspondent for German and Swiss newspapers and magazines.
Since 2007, Nicole Herzog-Verrey’s main focus is the development of climate change, by observing its influence on the glaciers of the Swiss Alps. For her, the glaciers are terminal patients. Each year Nicole Herzog-Verrey selects and visits alpine glaciers and thus increases a photographic inventory which she then uses as fundament and inspiration for her artistic work.
