Artist Biography
"Through photography I explore the imaginary worlds of those who live on
the fringes."
Victor Cobo (b. 1971) is a Spanish American photographer based in New
York City. His works explore our evolving isolation through memory,
dreams, sexuality and the translucency of the psyche. Cobo is a
self-taught photographer who was originally trained in painting and
life-drawing. He grew up in northern California where his earliest
memories of photography involved stealing his stepfather's cameras,
playing dress up and creating theatrical images with teenage friends.
Thus began his career as a Documentary Fine Art Photographer focusing on
the margins of society.
In 2007 he was the winner of the Aaron Siskind Individual Photographer's Fellowship.
Cobo's photographs have been exhibited nationally and internationally and his
work is featured in many private and public collections such as the
Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the Akron Art Museum, the Berkeley Art
Museum & Pacific Film Archive and the Amon Carter Museum, as well as
numerous private collections. In 2009 the Amon Carter Museum featured
his work in a group exhibition titled, "Masters of American Photography," amongst such artists as Lee Friedlander, Robert Frank and Diane Arbus.
