Tania Franco Klein

Tania Franco Klein (Nov 18, 1990) Mexican multidisciplinary artist currently working with photography, GIF, video and installation.
She started her praxis while gaining her BA Architecture in Mexico City, which took her to pursue her MA at the University of the Arts London.
Through the use of large-scale cinematic and vivid photographs, which exist in multilayered fragmented installations –composed of murals, videos, and framed photographs, her practice mainly centers around the examination of modern anxieties and the performative stresses that come from living life online with a constant fixation on self-improvement, productivity, the effects of media overstimulation, and the way we profile ourselves and others into
fitting our understanding of today’s eclectic and fragmented realities.

Franco Klein’s work has been reviewed by international critique including The Paris Review, JUXTAPOZ, Aperture Foundation, The British Journal of Photography, ARTFORUM, CNN, Los Angeles Times, I-D Magazine, The Guardian, Financial Times, The Washington Post, and Vogue.

She is a contributor to The New York Times, TIME, The New Yorker, FT weekend, New York Magazine, Los Angeles Times, Vogue and Dior.
Tania’s installations have been exhibited across Europe, USA, and Mexico.

Her first publication Positive Disintegration (2019) was nominated for the Paris Photo Aperture Foundation First Book Award.
Her work has been shown and is held in the permanent collections of The MoMA in New York and The Getty Center in Los Angeles
Her studio is based in Mexico City.
