The Association of International Photography Art Dealers (AIPAD) has named the 77 exhibitors that will participate in the upcoming edition of the Photography Show. The annual fair will return to the Park Avenue Armory in New York, running April 22–26.

This year’s fair will include a number of the world’s top photography-focused galleries, including Edwynn Houk Gallery, Yancey Richardson, Robert Mann Gallery, and Higher Pictures. First-time exhibitors, including Ruiz-Healy Art, Leica Gallery New York, and Galerie Sophie Scheidecker, will also feature in the fair.

The 2026 iteration of the fair will also focus on increasing its gender parity, per a release; a third of the exhibitors are women-led, women-founded, or both.

The fair will also introduce a new section, titled “Focal Point,” which will be dedicated to solo presentations for artists focused on lens-based photography to “showcase how artists have historically expanded our collective understanding of what photography is and how contemporary artists continue to show us what it can become,” per a release. This section of the fair will be designed by architecture firm Oficina.la.

Additionally, AIPAD will give artist, scholar, and NYU professor Deborah Willis its 2026 AIPAD Award, which will be presented during the VIP opening on April 22. A winner of both the MacArthur “Genius” Grant and a Guggenheim Fellowship, Willis joined NYU in 2000 and has chaired the Department of Photography and Imagining in the Tisch School of the Arts for nearly two decades. She is the author or editor of several landmark publications on Black photography, including Picturing Us: African American Identity in Photography (1996), Reflections in Black: A History of Black Photographers – 1840 to the Present (2000), and Posing Beauty: African American Images from the 1890s to the Present (2009).

Ashley Gilbertson Photographs "War at Home: A record of ICE’s assault on immigrants and the people’s resistance"

 Via Hammer and Hope

December 17, 2025

Assistant Chief Patrol Agent David Kim runs down an alleyway after a caravan of federal agents pulled up on people in southwest Chicago, Nov. 6, 2025. Photographs by Ashley Gilbertson/VII for Hammer & Hope

The immigrant catchers, faces covered, chase the workers down the street in broad daylight. The enemy is the landscaper, the day laborer, the high school student born in Mexico, Honduras, Venezuela. In the masks and guns of the federal agents, we see the riot gear of the Ferguson cops, the billy clubs of the Alabama state troopers, the Klansman’s hood. And in the brave crowds who gather to confront them, we see the power of solidarity. --click for full article

“That was my neighbor!” the woman screamed through tears at federal agents. “He’s just my neighbor!”

I tried to talk to the woman pictured above. She gave me permission to use her photograph, but she didn’t want to provide her name. Like so many people around ICE, she’s scared. Usually the stories I work on are filled with quotes, but the feds won’t talk to the press, and neither will anyone else. --Ashley Gilbertson

Women Photograph: 2025 Year in Pictures Features Tracy Barbutes Upside-down flag on El Capitan

 Via Women Photograph

December 15, 2025

Women Photograph is proud to share our 2025 Year in Pictures — a collection of images that once again shows us a world on the brink of political turmoil, climate crisis, and an extensive range of human-made disasters. This year’s annual retrospective takes us from Malaysia to South Sudan to Peru, from the ongoing immigration raids happening across the U.S. to efforts to control the spread of malaria in Uganda. As our planet continued to emerge from the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic and wars raged on in Ukraine and Congo, we also were buoyed by images of birth, family, celebration, and connection. This year’s Year in Pictures was curated by Women Photograph board member and former National Geographic magazine editor Elizabeth Krist — you can pre-order the 2025 Women Photograph Annual here, and donate to Women Photograph here to support our ongoing work to diversify the visual media industry.

TRACY BARBUTES

A fired park ranger and friends hang an upside-down American flag from El Capitan (Tu-Tok-A-Nu-La), a granite monolith in Yosemite National Park, Calif., on February 22, 2025. This act of protest against the thousands of federal job cuts by the current administration coincided with the “firefall” event, which draws thousands of spectators and photographers annually.

The image went viral and ignited protests on public lands throughout the United States. I stood under El Cap—something I’d done hundreds of times—and as I documented the unfurling of that upside down flag, an act signaling distress, I couldn’t help but observe that we were gathered on colonized Indigenous land.

Press arrests used to silence protest coverage in 2025

Via US Press Freedom Tracker

December 15, 2025

 While covering anything from protests to government meetings, journalists in 2025 were pulled from news scenes, placed in cuffs and held in custody from minutes to days — long enough for deadlines to pass and breaking news to go cold.

As of Dec. 15, the U.S. Press Freedom Tracker has documented at least 32 instances in which journalists were detained or charged just for doing their jobs. While that count is lower than the 50 documented last year, each one is a warning flare that something fundamental is shifting in how authorities police information and those who gather it. Most were released without charges or had them quickly dropped, but the impact extends far beyond the time spent in custody.

One journalist arrested while covering a protest told the Tracker his arrest stopped the news from getting out. “Talk about putting the brakes on press freedom,” he said.

Protest beat as battleground

Protests have long been where the fault lines of press freedom are most visible, and 2025 was no different. Nearly 90% of the arrests and detentions this year occurred while journalists were covering demonstrations.

They all also centered around a single issue: immigration.  --click to read full report

STEVE SCHAPIRO: BEING EVERYWHERE SCREENING IN SANTA FE

 STEVE SCHAPIRO: BEING EVERYWHERE

DEC 29 & 30 · FILMMAKER Q&A

Over six decades, photographer Steve Schapiro bore witness to some of the most significant social and cultural moments in modern American history.

Monroe Gallery represents Schapiro’s historic photographs, and several are featured in the current “Artists Behind The Art” exhibition.

Shot shortly before his passing by filmmaker Maura Smith, Steve Schapiro: Being Everywhere is a loving tribute to a man who was the quintessential "fly on the wall," waiting for moments to unfold and capturing them with a naturalism and skill that's nothing short of dazzling.
