Jenny Lynn Figurative Photography

American, b. 1953
Jenny Lynn is an accomplished photo-based artist whose unique and varied work ranges from conceptual photographs to photograms, collages, and sculptural/functional pieces. Lynn has also created a number of signature art objects, such as her Eyewatch wristwatch, and her three-dimensional PhotoTotems. Her largest project to date is “Dreams in Transit,” a 10-foot by 30-foot public art piece commissioned by New Jersey Transit, permanently installed at the 9th Street Station in Hoboken, New Jersey. Lynn’s artwork is represented in many private and public collections, including the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Center for Creative Photography, and the Norton Museum of Art. Lynn exhibits regularly at galleries and museums, and her retrospective monograph, “PhotoPlay,” features numerous examples of her inventive works. Best described as a "media mix," her artwork has been featured in “Photo District News,” “The New Yorker,” and “ZOOM International” magazines, as well as on book covers, for such publishers as Random House and Simon and Schuster. In 2015, an illustrated book that Lynn conceived and edited, “EyeBook: Sixty Artists. One Subject.,” was published by the fine art publisher Damiani of Bologna, Italy. Lynn is also well known for the widely seen magazine advertisement ABSOLUT LYNN, commissioned for the “Absolut Artists” series. Lynn was born in Tampa, Florida, and raised outside Philadelphia. After studying painting and photography at the Tyler School of Art, she briefly pursued filmmaking at the New York University Graduate School of Film and Television. Returning to photography, Lynn established herself as a freelance photographer and designer in New York City, and later lived in Santa Barbara, California, before moving to Philadelphia, where she currently resides and works. Lynn has taught and lectured at colleges, universities, and professional organizations throughout the country, and regularly conducts photo workshops in and around Philadelphia.
