Bill Henson

Bill Henson is an Australian photographer. He is known for his moody and atmospheric photographs of the human form, as well as landscapes and architectural interiors.

Henson began his career as a photographer in the 1970s and gained recognition in the 1980s for his moody and enigmatic images of teenagers. His work often explores themes of sexuality, desire, and the subconscious.

Throughout his career, Henson has continued to produce striking photographic works that push the boundaries of conventional portraiture and landscape photography. He has exhibited widely both in Australia and internationally and his work is included in the collections of many major museums, including the National Gallery of Australia, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York.

Henson has also been the recipient of numerous awards and honors for his photography, including the Centenary Medal from the Australian government in 2001 and the Officer of the Order of Australia in 2019.
