Lucas Foglia (born 1983) is a fine art photographer who makes stories about people in nature. With a clear aesthetic, his projects convey narratives that are lyrical, nuanced, and compassionate. He received a BFA from Brown University in 2005 and MFA from Yale University in 2010. His 2024 Guggenheim Fellowship traces the longest butterfly migration, creating a metaphor for human connections across international borders.
Foglia's photographic prints have been widely collected and exhibited, including at Fotografiemuseum Amsterdam, International Center of Photography, Museum of
Contemporary Art Denver, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and Victoria & Albert Museum. He has published six books: A Natural Order (2012), Frontcountry (2014), Human Nature (2017), Summer After (2021), Living on Lava (2024), and Constant Bloom (2025).
Combining art and advocacy, Foglia shares his photographs with the people he portrays, news organizations, and NGOs.
Meet the Butterflies Thriving While the World Convulses
Photographs by Lucas Foglia; Text by Aimee Nezhukumatathil
The South has occupied an uneasy place in the history of photography as both an example of regional exceptionalism and as the crucible from which American identity has been forged. As the first major survey of Southern photography in twenty-five years, this exhibition examines that complicated history and reveals the South’s critical impact on the evolution of the medium, posing timely questions about American culture and character.
Photoclimat is the first free, open-air environmental and social biennial, which is held for a month in the heart of Paris and its metropolitan area. Its aim is to give visibility to around fifty NGOs and Foundations through photographic art.
This permanent collection exhibition explores how photography registers change, bearing witness to cultural, political, and environmental shifts across time.
Foam presents the work of American photographer Lucas Foglia in the exhibition Human Nature.
