Kris Graves is an American artist & publisher
Episode 175: Kris Graves is an American artist and publisher, but his role within photography exceeds those simple terms.
Kris has been responsible for publishing books by up-and-coming artists for a decade. He has run a gallery and curated exhibitions and continues to inspire our community with his relentless energy and the high quality of work and his commitment to social concerns. Kris is deeply knowledgeable about publishing and our conversation reflects this.
Throughout the conversation, Kris and I spoke about his projects, books, and commissioned work. We speak about the current moment and his recent commission for National Geographic regarding American Monuments of contentious historical figures. It was an illuminating discussion about a very important body of work. We round out the conversation speaking about NFT’s which I fully declared then and now as knowing nothing about. Please dig in!
