Henry Horenstein
Henry Horenstein is an American photographer, teacher, and author known for his compelling documentary work. A long-time Professor of Photography at Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), Horenstein studied under legendary photographers Harry Callahan, Aaron Siskind, and Minor White, developing a distinctive approach to composition and storytelling. Horenstein’s work captures the overlooked, under-recognised, and working-class communities, offering intimate glimpses into life in the 1970s.
Horenstein's legendary work has been widely recognised, the Smithsonian Institute listing him as one of the ten defining figures in the history of photography alongside icons like Julia Margaret Cameron, Dorothea Lange and Richard Avedon.
Limited edition prints are available through Elliott Gallery.
