Artist Talk with American photographer Henry Horenstein

Henry Horenstein

Henry Horenstein (1947) is a Jewish-American photographer and professor at the Rhode Island School of Design, where he also studied. Trained as a historian and shaped by documentary tradition, he focuses his lens on fringe groups, the working class and other under-exposed communities. Themes such as heritage and storytelling run like a common thread through his oeuvre, including the early series Close Relations, an intimate look at the life of a Jewish middle-class family and their social circle in the 1970s.
