青木健二

青木 健二（あおき けんじ、1968年2月4日）は、日本の写真家。東京都出身。 ニューヨークを活動の拠点としている。幾何学的、分析的な視点によるStill Life（静物）を専門とする写真家。 クラフトデザイナーである伯父の芳武茂介からデッサンを学び、桑沢デザイン研究所に入学し、バウハウスのデザイン理念を学ぶ中、カジミール・マレーヴィチ『無対象の世界（NON OBJECTIVE WORLD)』に出会い、多大な影響を受ける。『無対象』という東洋における禅や自然哲学のような芸術、0の概念に突き動かされ、写真を通して、形あるものから『無対象』を探し求めるようになる。1993年より、東京を拠点にスティルライフフォトグラファーとして活動を始め、独特の色彩感覚やミニマリズムによる力強く繊細な作風が評価される。2008ニューヨークのフォトグラファーエージェントからオファーを受け、2010年、秋にニューヨークに拠点を移す。『The New York Times Magazine』『TIME』の表紙ならびにCover Storyを数多く手がけ、『THE NEW YORK TIMES MAGAZINE PHOTOGRAPHS』edited by Kathy Ryan,『AMERICAN PHOTOGRAPHY』 に作品が選出されている。2021ドイツKehrer Verlag社から写真集：SPACEを出版。 2021 - SPACE : Kenji Aoki - 1997-2017, - Limited Edition of 750 Numbered copies.
