About the artist

Kristin Capp

American

b. 1964

Kristin Capp (born 1964) is an American photographer, author and educator. Capp's work has been exhibited both nationally and internationally. Her work is included in collections at the Whitney Museum in New York, the Lyman Allyn Art Museum in Connecticut, the International Center of Photography in New York and the Harvard Art Museum. She was one of sixty international artists selected for the Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art in 2017. Her work has appeared in the Bursa International Photofest in Turkey, as well as in Switzerland, France, Belgium, Germany and the United States.

She has published three books of photography: Hutterite: A World of Grace (1998), Americana (2000) and Brasil (2016).

Over a period of eight years, Capp traveled frequently to Brasil, where she shot 800 rolls of film on a Rolleiflex. As a result of this work, Brasil (2016), Capp eschewed the usual imagery of carnival and exoticized sexuality for black-and-white photographs of "street culture, landscape, architecture and the visual magic she encountered in Rio de Janeiro." To complete the project, Capp crowd-funded to cover costs of layout, design and shipping.[9] The project foregrounds Capp's aesthetic concerns with marginalized communities and the book was published by the Italian fine-art publisher Damiani.[10]
