  • Artist: Alen MacWeeney (Irish, b. 1939)

Irish photographer and filmmaker. MacWeeney studied in Paris, beginning his career at age 20. His photographs generally depict interiors, countrysides, portraits, and inner lives that convey a wide array of emotions which range from humorous to dramatic. He utilizes simplistic portraiture, paired with a skilled sense of composition and use of light. He directed a full-length documentary called Traveller (2001).
