Tina Barney
20-21st Century Photographer Photography
American, b. 1945
Tina Barney (American, b. 1945) uses portraiture to capture the lifestyles and family dynamics of those around her. Born and raised in New York, NY, Barney’s photographic career began in the 1970’s. She studied at the Sun Valley Center for Arts and Humanities in Ketchum, ID, from 1976 to 1979. Barney’s large-scale color photographs are reminiscent of classical portraiture, but they depict the confines and lifestyles of modernity, most often of the artist’s affluent friends and family. Though Barney frequently plays the role of passive observer, the majority of her works are studied and well-orchestrated scenes, the figures and settings carefully arranged to portray the image she desires.
