John, b. 1960 in Connecticut, is a remarkable and much loved artist. Over the past thirty-three years, working in a state of near-blindness, he has created photographs as if from his soul. John at 64 has reached a notable level of artistic acclaim with his dreamlike portraits and orderly still-lifes. These can be seen in such storied institutions as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of Fine Art in New York City, The National Portrait Gallery, Washington D.C., and the Getty Museum, Los Angeles. They can also be seen in other noteworthy collections and more than 25 solo exhibitions worldwide…

From image to presentation, the artist’s hand is apparent from start to finish. After 40 years working between his attic studio in Greenwich Village and his 19th c. Farmhouse in Upstate New York, John now resides with his husband in Upstate New York full-time and continues to make photographs in his new studio, the 19th c. Photographic Society. 

A successful commercial photographer, he got his Bachelor of Fine Arts in New York in 1984. His subjects are portraits and figure studies of friends and family, flowers, still-lifes of his collection of antique china and glass, and the rural landscape of his home. They are also intimate glimpses of private moments and personal spaces. There is a tranquil and timeless quality to his work.
