Sally Mann (1951) is an American photographer. Ever since her first museum exhibition in 1977, her works have brought admiration and occasional controversy. Among her subjects are the figure, the complex nature of childhood, the landscape of the American South and the fleeting nature of life. Sally Mann uses classical techniques and large-format cameras; she has made prints using the platinotype and bromoil techniques, thought she most often prints in silver gelatin. In the mid-1990s, she began to use the wet-plate collodion method, and the technical flaws associated with this have since been a constant part of her visual language. The pictures resemble a mixture of photography and painting and can be sculptural. Mann’s most important books are At Twelve: Portraits of Young Women (1988), Immediate Family (1992), Still Time (1994), Mother Land. What Remains (2003), Deep South (2005), Proud Flesh (2009), and The Flesh and The Spirit (2010).

Her work has been exhibited widely and can be found in many of the world’s leading private and museum collections.
