Cuny Janssen (NL 1975) completed her studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Utrecht followed by an internship with Thomas Struth in Düsseldorf, Germany.
Since 2000 Janssen travelled around the world to make portraits of children in their everyday environments, combining these with photographs of the landscape they are surrounded by. So far Janssen photographs exclusively in color and manages to capture impulsive moments with an analogue 4 x 5 inch plate camera, which seems like a contradiction. Her photos create a profoundly expressive work about a city or a region and their people. Her travels resulted in several photo books such as India (2002), Portrait/Landscape Macedonia (2004), Finding Thoughts (2005), There is Something in the Air (2007), Amami (2009), My Grandma Was a Turtle (2010), Yoshino (2013) and BLU (2015). Cuny Janssen was nominated for the Prix de Rome for Photography in 2002 and had solo exhibitions at the Photographers' Gallery in London, Photography Museum Amsterdam (FOAM), Museum de Pont in Tilburg and Kunstverein Heilbronn. She's represented by andriesse eyck galerie in Amsterdam who will launch her new book There Was a Child Went Forth. Their beauty made the American photographer and writer Robert Adams include one of Janssen's photographs in his newest publication Art Can Help: Selected Essays and Notes, Yale University.
Cuny Janssen lives and works in Amsterdam.
