Charles Grogg (born 1966, Gary, Indiana) is an American contemporary artist and photographer. He currently resides in southern California, producing fractured photographic images printed in platinum and palladium on handmade Japanese washi which are restitched into whole images and frequently feature tethers, sutures or other three dimensional productions. The resulting images focus on issues of growth and restraint, hesitation and power.〔artist's website 30 January 2010〕 Grogg's photographic genealogy includes the early Vik Muniz, Robert W. Fichter, and Thomas Barrow, as well as Andy Warhol's sewn multiples.〔listed by Tim Wride, former curator of photographs at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, in Critical Looking: The Art of Conscious Creativity, workshop, Santa Barbara, CA, Dec. 5, 2009.〕 His work has been published in a variety of photograph-focused periodicals including LensWork,〔LensWork 80, Jan-Feb, 2009〕 B&W,〔B&W Magazine issue 60 Summer 2008〕 View Camera,〔View Camera Magazine Sept.-Oct. 2009〕 Black&White Photography (U.K.),〔Black&White Photography March 2010〕 and Silvershotz.〔Silvershotz Edition 5, Issue 1〕 He is an Associate Professor of English at Santa Barbara City College (CA), where he has taught since 1998 〔archive.sbcc.edu/.../Faculty%20and%20Administrators,%202008-09.pdf〕 and on the MFA faculty at Brooks Institute.〔http://mfa.brooks.edu/〕 In 2010, Grogg was selected by John Wood for the Clarence John Laughlin Award, which is given to a photographer “whose work exhibits sustained artistic excellence and creative vision.” 〔http://www.neworleansphotoalliance.org/grants/CJL_Award/index.php/〕 At the time, Wood was the editor for 21st Editions, a letterpress publisher of limited edition portfolios in photography featuring artists such as Michael Kenna, Jerry Uelsmann, Joel-Peter Witkin, and Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison.〔http://www.21steditions.com/〕 In 2011, 21st Editions published “Cracked: the Art of Charles Grogg” featuring platinum/palladium prints from the series “After Ascension and Descent” and “Reconstructions,” and poems that John Wood, a two-time winner of the Iowa Poetry Prize,〔http://mfa.mcneese.edu/about-the-founder/〕 wrote specifically for the edition.〔http://www.21steditions.com/〕 Since that time, Grogg’s work has evolved toward digitally processed imagery and imagery resulting from the intermediary use of digital technology 〔Elephant Magazine #22, spring 2015〕 due to his self-professed artistic interest in the presence of the photographic surface.〔http://www.charlesgrogg.com〕
