Nicholas Muellner

Nicholas Muellner is a writer, photographer and curator based in central New York. His work across a range of disciplines and practices considers the poetics of representation as a conduit between political understanding and personal experience. His most recent textual and visual book projects focus on autobiographical narrative and the place of photography within that practice. These include The Photograph Commands Indifference (A-Jump Books, 2009), and The Amnesia Pavilions (A-Jump Books, 2011), which was selected as a top photo book of 2011 by Time Magazine. He has given readings at PS1 and Union Docs in New York, and at numerous venues in the United States and Europe. His work has been supported by a MacDowell Colony Fellowship, as well as grants from the Trust for Mutual Understanding and CEC Artslink. He teaches photography and critical studies at the Park School of Communications, Ithaca College.
