Cynthia Greig lives and works in metropolitan Detroit. Her photographs, videos and installations explore the unique nature of the photographic image and its power to persuade and negotiate what we believe to be real or true. Exhibited both nationally and abroad, including a 20–year survey exhibition, Cynthia Greig: Subverting the (un)Conventional at Oakland University in 2011, her work is held in public collections that include the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, George Eastman House, Light Work, Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago, Museum of Fine Arts Houston, and Smith College Museum of Art. Most recently awarded a CCNY Project Grant in 2012, Greig’s work has also received recognition as a finalist for the 2007 Aperture Prize, as well as receiving the Santa Fe Center for Photography Assignment Earth Award in 2004, the Houston Center for Photography Fellowship in 2003 and a Light Work Residency in 2001. Also an avid collector of vintage photographs, Greig co-authored the book, Women in Pants: Manly Maidens, Cowgirls and Other Renegades published by Harry N. Abrams and recently curated the 2011 exhibition For the Record: Andy Warhol’s Polaroids and Snapshots, 1974-1986 for Mott Community College in Flint, MI.
