Nan Goldin is a fine-art photographer known for documenting her life, friends and New York City's subcultures through the late 70s and early 90s.
Goldin was introduced to photography while still in school and had her first solo show in Boston in 1973. She moved to New York in late 70s, where she began documenting the new wave music scene and the post-Stonewall gay culture of the Bowery. Her photographs from this era became the basis for her most well-known work The Ballad of Sexual Dependency.
In September 2007, a photograph of Goldin's called Klara and Edda Belly-Dancing was seized from the BALTIC Centre of Contemporary Art in the U.K. The photograph was part of Thanksgiving, an exhibition of Goldin's work from Sir Elton John's Photography Collection. The photo was seized on the grounds that it breached child pornography laws.
Goldin is represented by the Matthew Marks Gallery.
