Lyle Ashton Harris

Lyle Ashton Harris (born in Bronx, New York, 1965) has cultivated a diverse artistic practice, ranging from photography and collage to video installation and performance art, examining the impact of race, gender, and desire on the contemporary social and cultural dynamic globally through intersections of the personal and the political. Harris has been widely exhibited internationally, and a solo exhibition spanning three decades of his work was most recently presented at the Queens Museum in New York in 2024. His work is included in the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, MoMA, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Tate Modern, among many other public and private collections. Harris’s Ektachrome Archive was the subject of a photography monograph published by Aperture in 2017 and an exhibition catalog published by ICA Miami in 2023. The catalog of his recent solo exhibition “Lyle Ashton Harris: Our first and last love” was published by Gregory Miller Projects in 2024.
