Michael Kenna
2023 marked 50 years of photography by British artist Michael Kenna. Celebrated as one of the world’s most prominent landscape photographers, Kenna is known for his poetic black & white images from around the globe. His mysterious photographs, often made at dawn or in the dark hours of night, concentrate primarily on the interaction between the natural landscape and human-made structures.
During Michael Kenna’s career, his photographs have been shown in over five hundred one-person gallery and museum exhibitions throughout the world, and are included in over a hundred permanent institutional collections, including; The Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris; The Metropolitan Museum of Photography, Tokyo; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; The National Gallery, Washington, D.C.; The Shanghai Art Museum, Shanghai; and The Victoria and Albert Museum, London. Michael Kenna received the prestigious Officer des Arts et des Lettres medal in Paris in 2022.
