Neil Gittings, is an artist born in Houston, Texas in 1957. Gittings learned the art of photography working in the Gittings family business. In the 1960's, Neil Gittings worked at the d'Amico Gittings studio and laboratory in Houston, Texas at a time when the laboratory made dye-transfer prints from negatives taken during the Apollo 11 moon mission. During the 1970's, Gittings worked throughout southwest America. Neil Gittings photographed Bill Clinton,Hilary Clinton George W. Bush,madam Roy Disney and Nicolae Ceauşescu.While working in the Gittings studio at Bullocks Wilshire in Los Angeles, Gittings met Don Troop and Marisa Bozza and formed the rock group, the Naked Apes of Reason.The group performed throughout Texas. The group then moved to Paris,France in 1990. The group performed for several years and broke up. In Paris,Neil Gittings painted the cupola of the concert venue, New Moon (formerly known as the Nouvelle Athens) at place Pigalle. In 1995, Gittings walked from Paris to ex-yugoslavia in protest of the war. This march culminated in the BALKAN PEACE petition including the signatures of the Patriarch Pavle, Radovan Karadžić, the bishop of Sarjevo, and the bishop of Lubiana. The march by Neil Gittings was intended to point out that one simple person could make a positive influence for peace, but the march was also intended to even out the negative colective propaganda whereby the western media all too frequently used the term "serbian aggressor". Gittings tried to point out to the west that the serbians had a point of view ,right or wrong,that must be considered. Gittings asks "why is Radovan Karadžić considered a war criminal for defending his own territory, while it seems acceptable that George Bush invades another country in the name of democracy?"
