About
Why this artist matters now
Leslie Robert Krims is an American photographer known for carefully arranged fabricated images that combine conceptual rigor with satirical observation. Working primarily in color and black-and-white series since the 1970s, his practice encompasses both staged tableaux and candid sequences marked by dark humor and formal precision. Based in Buffalo, New York, Krims has developed a distinctive approach to constructed narrative photography that questions documentary conventions and institutional critique.
