Acclaimed for her contemporary depictions, Mona Kuhn is considered a leading artist in the world of figurative discourse.  Throughout a career spanning more than twenty years, the underlying theme of her work is her reflection on humanity’s longing for spiritual connection and solidarity. As she solidified her photographic style, Kuhn created a notable approach to the nude by developing friendships with her subjects, and employing a range of playful visual strategies that use natural light and minimalist settings to evoke a sublime sense of comfort between the human figure and its environment. Her work is natural, restful, and a reinterpretation of the nude in the canon of contemporary art. 

Kuhn was born in São Paulo, Brazil, in 1969, of German descent.  In 1989, Kuhn moved to the US and earned her BA from The Ohio State University, before furthering her studies at the San Francisco Art Institute.  She is currently an independent scholar at The Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles.  Occasionally, Mona teaches at UCLA and the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena.

Mona Kuhn’s latest monograph is Mona Kuhn: Works.

Sarah Meister became a Curator at The Museum of Modern Art in 2009, having joined the Department of Photography in 1997. Her research has included exploring narratives around twentieth century photography in Latin America, one result of which was the acquisition of more than fifty Brazilian modernist photographs. 

Her books have included One and One Is Four: The Bauhaus Photocollages of Josef Albers (2016) and Arbus Friedlander Winogrand: New Documents, 1967 (2017). She was also a co-editor of and contributing author to the three volume series Photography at MoMA (1960 to Now, 1920 to 1960, and 1840 to 1920 [forthcoming]), co-director of the August Sander Project (with Noam Elcott), and the lead instructor for the online course Seeing Through Photographs on Coursera.

Working with the Gordon Parks Foundation, she curated a book and exhibition of Park’s work based on a Life Magazine assignment in the late 1950s, The Atmosphere of Crime 1957.

Meister will soon be leaving MOMA to head the photographic non-profit organization, Aperture.
