John Shand Kydd

John "Johnnie" Shand Kydd (born 1959) is a British photographer. He is the youngest son of Peter Shand Kydd and Janet Munro Kerr, and the former stepbrother to Diana, Princess of Wales. Kydd has exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery in London.

Life and work

[edit]

Shand Kydd studied Art (and English) at Exeter University, but said that, by then, he had done enough painting to know that he did not want to pursue it, "There's so much crap art around and what's the point of being a mediocre artist?"[1]

His most recent publication and photographic exhibition, Siren City, is the result of eight years of photographic research in Naples, a place defined by Shand Kydd as one of the most radical cities in Europe.[2]
