Tyler Mitchell (b. 1995 Atlanta, GA; lives and works in Brooklyn, NY) is a photographer and filmmaker working across many genres to explore and document a new aesthetic of Blackness.

In 2018, he made history as the first Black photographer to shoot a cover of American Vogue for Beyoncé’s appearance in the September issue. The following year, a portrait from this series was acquired by The Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery for its permanent collection.

In 2019 Mitchell held his first solo exhibition, 

, at Foam Fotografiemuseum Amsterdam where he showed new photographic and video works including installation films 

. An iteration of the show traveled to the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York in 2020. Mitchell published an eponymous monograph with Prestel RandomHouse in conjunction with the exhibition, further exploring his take on a Black visual utopia.

In 2020 Mitchell was announced as the recipient of the Gordon Parks Fellowship, which will support a new project that reflects and draws inspiration from Parks’ central themes of representation and social justice. Mitchell’s fellowship will culminate in an exhibition of the new works at the Gordon Parks Foundation Gallery in Pleasantville, NY.

Mitchell has lectured at a number of institutions on the politics of image making including Harvard University, Paris Photo and the International Center of Photography (ICP).
