Charles Cohen

Based in New York, Charles Cohen participated in the Core Fellowship program at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston after earning his MFA in photography at the Rhode Island School of Design and his BA in Anthropology at The University of Chicago. In addition to traditional photography Cohen uses video, digital imaging and sculpture to explore various aspects of a central theme—the conflation of opposites. Cohen’s work has been exhibited in New York, Paris, Boston, Houston, San Francisco, Portland, Lisbon, Berlin and Miami. It can be seen in several books including: "Digital Art" by Christiane Paul published by Thames & Hudson, and "CURVE: The Female Nude Now" by Dailey, Meghan et al, published by Rizzoli, "100 New York Photographers” by Cynthia Dantzic, and "Art/Porn: A History of Seeing and Touching” by Kelly Dennis. Cohen's work is in the collections of The Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University, The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, The Portland Art Museum in Oregon among other institutions.
