Krisanne Johnson

Another Midwesterner turned Brooklyn artist, I find Krisanne is making the difference we need to see in the art community. Sher has been working with young women in Swaziland and South Africa since 2006 on the topics of post-apartheid youth culture and HIV/AIDS. Publications that have featured her work include The New Yorker, TIME, The New York Times, Fader, The Wall Street Journal, CNN, US News & World Report, L’Espresso (Italy), Vanity Fair (Italy), D la Repubblica (Italy). In temrs of her fashion photography work, she is not your mainstream high fashion photographer. Her work has made appearances in the International Center for Photography’s Year of Fashion in the group exhibit, Weird Beauty: Fashion Photography Now. Her all black and white work is extremely eye-opening and clear,which i admire her ability to present a subject so beautifully and without mask of colors or editing.
