Anne Sager Abstract Photography
American
Anne Sager is a contemporary photographer known for her vibrant color palettes and eclectic subject matter, ranging from intimate close-ups of natural forms to evocative junkyard still lives. Her artistic journey began in painting, but she transitioned to color photography, drawn to its unique expressive possibilities. Sager's work often explores the beauty found in unexpected places, as seen in her compelling junkyard series, where she transforms discarded objects into visually arresting compositions. Her exploration of the human form is also notable, particularly in her series focusing on Women over 50, which celebrates the strength, beauty, and diversity of mature womanhood. Her artistic process has evolved to include digital manipulation, allowing her to further enhance the visual impact of her images. Sager's significant presence within the New York art scene is underscored by her intimate portraits of art world luminaries such as Willem de Kooning, Keith Haring, and John Opper, captured within the private spaces of their studios. This access to and documentation of these iconic figures highlights her deep immersion in and connection to the heart of the New York art world during a pivotal era. Her exhibitions at Ashawagh Hall, the Neikrug Gallery, and the International Center of Photography in Manhattan, as well as her international shows, including a group show in Prague with Professional Women Photographers, further solidify her standing as a respected artist.to

Pulse (Kings Road) - observations at the Schindler House in Los Angeles
By Mona Kuhn
Located in San Francisco, CA
Original large format photographic print from Mona Kuhn's series Kings Road, ephemeral observations of interiors, vignettes and details captured at Rudolph Schindler's iconic LA home.
In Kings Road (2022) Mona Kuhn lyrically reconsiders the realms of time and space within the midcentury architectural elements of the iconic Schindler House in Los Angeles. Built by Austrian architect Rudolph M. Schindler in 1922, the house was both a social and design experiment and an avant-garde hub for intellectuals and artists in the 1920s and ’30s.
The body of work this individual photo is from incorporates chromogenic color prints, reflecting vignettes and materials of the building's emotional architecture, juxtaposition with unique solarized gelatin silver prints capturing traces of an ethereal human presence.
The exhibition Kings Road has been shown in Santa Barbara, Paris, Göttingen an Lianzhou. Read more about Mona Kuhn in a recent Introspective Magazine feature - see 1stDibs page footer below

About the artist
Acclaimed for her contemporary depictions, 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.
For the past two decades, the Los-Angeles based artist's works have been shown steadily, revealing an astonishing consistency in technique, of subject and of purpose. In 2001, Kuhn’s photographs were first seen by an influential audience during the exhibition at Charles Cowles Gallery in Chelsea, New York. Kuhn’s distinct aesthetic has propelled her as one of the most collectible contemporary art photographers—her work is in private and public collections worldwide and she is represented by galleries across the United States, Europe and Asia.
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.
Kuhn’s first monograph, Photographs, was debuted by Steidl in 2004; followed by Evidence (2007), Native (2010), Bordeaux Series (2011), Private (2014), and She Disappeared into Complete Silence (2018/19). In addition, Stanley/Barker Editions published Kuhn's Bushes & Succulents in 2018. In 2021, Thames & Hudson published a career retrospective titled Works. Kuhn's most recent publication Kings Road (2022) with Steidl accompanies a multi-dimensional museum traveling exhibition shown in Europe and the US.
Mona Kuhn’s work is in private and public collections worldwide, including The J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Hammer Museum, Perez Art Museum Miami, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and the Kiyosato Museum in Japan. Kuhn's work has been exhibited at The Louvre Museum and Le Bal in Paris; The Whitechapel Gallery and Royal Academy of Arts in London; Musée de l’Elysée in Switzerland; Leopold Museum in Vienna Austria, The Polygon Gallery in Vancouver Canada, Taipei Fine Arts Museum in Taiwan and Australian Centre for Photography. Mona Kuhn lives and works in Los Angeles.
