Anna Condo is a French director and photographer, born in Armenia, living in New York. She began an acting career, then in 1988 turned to photography. In 1989, Anna moved to the United States and worked on many projects. She started writing and making movies. During this period, Anna continued to take photographs and collaborated with many artists.
In 1998, She published her first book “AH Allen,” a powerful tribute to her friend and poet Allen Ginsberg. Since 2013, Anna has been focusing on flower photography. Is it a snub to this society that is constantly reinventing the rules? Or simply the observation that the real is elsewhere? Some view the flower as naive. Anna’s works prove the opposite. These images that can be compared to portraits, impose respect. Indeed here the flower is no longer fragile. She is strong, sometimes arrogant. She symbolizes this nature that only bends to the elements. A real break in the world in which we live in. The flower is a lady first and foremost. A feminist before its time. A broth of culture, stories, and emotions. P. Achdijan (“The storm revives flowers” C. Baudelaire).
