About Christopher Giglio
I am an artist, photographer, and educator with over 25 years experience in the classroom. As a teacher, I aim to inspire creative problem solving and help students succeed in realizing their own voice and passion, while maintaining clear goals and high expectations. I believe in the importance of a good foundation and the Grammar Sequence of courses is my effort in providing that foundation to students of photography. I currently teach at the International Center of Photography in New York and through private classes. I have previously taught in BFA and/or MFA programs at Parsons School of Design, Cooper Union, and Ohio University, and in the Professional Studies program at Pratt Institute.
My photography has been exhibited in over 35 gallery and institutional venues including the Museum of Modern Art, the California Museum of Photography, and the New Museum. I have had solo shows at James Danziger Gallery, New York, Marion Locks Gallery, Philadelphia, and HallWalls, Buffalo. I have received grants from Art Matters, the Marie Walsh Sharpe Art Foundation, the Aaron Siskind Foundation, and the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts. Permanent collections include the Museum of Modern Art, NY, Princeton University Art Museum, Princeton, NJ, AT&T Technology Center, Washington DC, and Centro Cultural/Arte Contemporaneo, Mexico City. Published in Blind Spot, Visionaire, and Exit magazines, among others.
