ANOUK MASSON KRANTZ

“I am an explorer. I explore places. I explore people.” – Anouk Masson Krantz

Born and raised in France, Anouk Krantz moved to the United States in the late 1990s. Living in New York City, she completed her high school at the Lycee Francais and earned her bachelor’s degree while working for a lifestyle magazine. Following college, she worked at Cartier’s corporate office in New York that oversees the Americas.

Anouk later studied at the International Center of Photography and has received wide acclaim for her best selling WILD HORSES OF CUMBERLAND ISLAND (2017), now in its Second Edition, 3rd reprint, and WEST: THE AMERICAN COWBOY (2019), sixth reprint. AMERICAN COWBOYS was released in September 2021 and currently ranks number one on the Amazon best sellers list. AMERICAN COWBOYS is a deeper look into the American West. Anouk’s solo journey across America over two years, reveals the intimate lives and families of this private and elusive icon of the American West. Her latest work, RANCHLAND : WAGONHOUND is set to be released September 28, 2022.

Anouk’s work has appeared in prominent galleries and museums and earned accolades from the International Photography Awards and International Monochrome Awards. Her books and her art have been praised in international publications, such as Vanity Fair, Town & Country, Time, Harper’s Bazaar, Daily Mail UK, and Garden & Gun, among many others.

“It was a private world, running on a timetable all its own. Though I was often alone on Cumberland Island, I was never lonely.” – Thomas Carnegie IV

Once home to the Carnegie’s, and a longtime favorite getaway for America’s most influential and wealthy families seeking the ultimate in natural beauty and utmost privacy, Cumberland Island, the largest of Georgia’s barrier islands, offers breathtaking white-sand beaches, rolling dunes, old-growth oak forests, and salt marsh tidal estuaries. The Carnegie’s acquired most of the island in the late 1800s and in 1972 turned over 90 percent of their prized treasure to the National Park Service. The island will now forever be a preserved wilderness, an isolated sanctuary within a world erupting into modern landscapes. Cumberland Island is a rarity on the United States’ East Coast. It moves to a slower speed. It’s a secret that focuses on life’s basics and is a powerful reminder that “less is more.” There is very little to do, other than explore, marvel, and reflect. Time spent on Cumberland Island will reacquaint you with the simplest understanding of the vital elements needed to nourish the soul. Celebrated French photographer, Anouk Masson Krantz, has captured a portfolio, built over a decade, that is an intimate reflection not only of Cumberland Island’s exceptional beauty and spirited horses, but of the history and the safekeeping that have allowed both to flourish.
