For decades, TASIS has inspired young artists to continue their work in the visual arts through university and into their professional lives. Many TASIS alumni have become highly successful in their chosen creative fields, whether in traditional visual arts such as painting or photography or in parallel fields such as architecture, graphic design, or in art direction. We hope to highlight different alumni artists in our blog each month. This page will be a directory of our TASIS artists with contact information and links to their websites. It is a work in progress...be patient!

Robin Gilli '08

Since graduating with a BFA from the Art Center College of Design, Robin has traveled the world as a freelance photographer, shooting both stills and video in such places as Norway, Corsica, Iceland, South Africa, and Morocco. His work comprises landscapes, sports, and studio work. In spring 2014, he went to Mali to capture images of nomads for his portrait project, which included a video of how the photos came together. Summer 2014 included shooting for Stanserhorn-Bahn which featured their open-top gondola. In his free time, Robin experiments with shooting landscapes, people, and vehicles around his home.
