Photography
Influenced by the direct and unflinching style of such photographers as Helmut Newton, Diane Arbus, August Sander, Nan Goldin is most well known for her autobiographical images that depict deeply personal relationships. Her most famed work, The Ballad of Sexual Dependency (1980–86), is a slideshow accompanied by music, with images set within her life in New York City during the 1980s. First exhibited in the 1985 Whitney Biennial, the work continues to resonate with audiences; it was displayed as recently as 2016 at the Museum of Modern Art, New York
