Other publications where my work has appeared include New York Magazine, The Village Voice, Beyond Race Magazine, The New York Sun, New York Blade, Gay City News, $pread Magazine, The Villager, Columbia Review, the Adobe Anthology, and other publications in print and online. My photographs have been exhibited in several art shows, including Art Flux and Inner Beauty Parlor at the Envoy Gallery.
In 2005, I earned an MS in Journalism from Columbia's Graduate School of Journalism; in 1990 an MFA in Writing from Columbia's School of the Arts; in 1987 a BA from Columbia's School of General Studies; in 1980 an AAS in Fashion Buying and Merchandising from Fashion Institute of Technology. I attended the French Culinary Institute and am a certified yoga teacher in training from the Iyengar Institute in NYC.

Gerry Visco's Most Interesting Photos on Flickriver
"What I love about Geraldine Visco is; this is a girl who knows how to have fun. If you journey through her flickr steam, not only will you see her contagious smile and enthusiasm for life, but her talent for capturing this glamorous Sodom and Gomorrah we call home. Her 'slice of life' documentation and photos are a true spectrum of urban existence. Go deep into the snapshots and there are amazing portraits that show true emotion and expression. I love her range and diversity, it is so, what the world needs to be. Beauty in all things. Boundless. I love her subway shots, spontaneous and unadulterated. Geraldine Visco, so savoir faire!"

Testimonials (3)

Aaron Edwards says:
"I can't believe I've not already written a testimonial for Gerry Visco. Bottom Line - she is making a documentary, frame by frame, in a way that makes the viewer want to be in that film. Her eye, her ability to be at 3 places all at once, her knack for being surrounded by amazing people (amazing for being the best and the worst) is substantial. Although I came to know her as a photographer first, she is so very skilled in so many areas.
It is my pleasure and honor to call her a friend, mentor and muse."9th April, 2009

"What a brilliant post-structuralist critique of the phenonmenology of being! Every time I view these photographs, I'm enraptured in an existentential journey which penetrates the deepest depths of my soul.
In short, Gerry transcends time and space."8th January, 2008

"I don't know how she does it. Gerry seems to capture the essence of a person when she takes their picture. It's like you can see deep down into their soul. Her work is great. RSV
Up date-11/10/07-----Gerry can take a weird, really weird, picture and turn it into a work of art. Look at her pics of the Drag Queen, it's like you are standing there. Thank you for sharing your work with all of us RSV
Up date-1209-07--------Gerry has gone and done it again. Her new photos are, as usual, are great. As I have said before. She has taken something weird, and turned it into a work of Art. RSV
I have always wanted to go to a club in New York, well, thanks to
Gerry, now I have. Keep the great pictures, {works of Art} coming.
RSV"1st January, 2008
