Alessandra Sanguinetti was born in New York in 1968, raised in Argentina, and is currently based in New York. She has received numerous awards and fellowships including a Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship; Hasselblad Foundation Grant; and Discovery Award, Rencontres D’Arles, France. Her photographs are included in major public and private collections, such as the Museum of Modern Art (NY); San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; International Center of Photography, NY; and Museum of Modern Art, Buenos Aires. Alessandra Sanguinetti has photographed for The New York Times Magazine, LIFE, Newsweek and New York Magazine. In her recent work, The Adventures of Guille and Belinda, she explores the complex, wondrous and sometimes painful transformation from childhood to womanhood, her playfulness with camera and cast contrasting with the realities of culture and society, exposing the fears, hopes, aspirations and vulnerability of youth.
