Ingvar Kenne (b. 1965), photographer, was born in Sweden and is now based between Sydney and New York. He studied photography at the University of Gothenburg and had his first solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, Boras, Sweden in 1992. Kenne's work has been included in exhibitions globally, and he has exhibited consistently in Australia since 2001. Displaying his deceptively simplistic but intimate style, his photographic portrait of his sons Cormac and Callum won the National Portrait Gallery's National Photographic Portrait Prize in 2009. He has published five books, including Citizen portraits 1997–2012, which was released in conjunction with his solo show at the National Portrait Gallery in 2012 and toured around Australia. In 2020 three of his portraits were selected for the National Portrait Gallery, London's Taylor Wessing Portrait Prize.
