Curtis Knapp is an award-winning portrait and fashion photographer. He attended the Parsons School of Design, New York. Since the 1980s, he has photographed some of the greatest artists, musicians, actors, writers, and celebrities of our day, including Madonna (her first portrait magazine cover), Laurie Anderson, William Burroughs, Lou Reed, REM, Brian Eno, Dennis Hopper, Margaux Hemmingway, John Hurt, and many others. In 1982, he began shooting for Andy Warhol's Interview Magazine, and met Warhol in 1983, the year he shot the portraits in our exhibition.
Knapp has published seven books of photography, including Catwalk: Fashion Models of Japan (1993), Foto Portraits (1998), Prison's Inside Art (1999), and a series of nudes shot in Japan. His portraits of Andy Warhol are among the last images we have of Warhol in his last Factory.
