Eugene Tapahe will speak about “Art Heals: TheJingle Dress Project”. “The Jingle Dress Project” originated from Tapahe's dream inspiring him to bring global attention to Native American issues in these uncertain times of social differences through the healing power of the Ojibwe jingle dress dance. Since then, Tapahe has traveled over 25,000 miles, documenting family members dancing the healing jingle dress dance in National Parks and Monuments, honoring the places where their ancestors once lived. This project has received national and international recognition for its unifying effect on communities. Monroe Gallery is the exclusive representative for Tapahe’s “Jingle Dress” fine art prints.

The Guggenheim Foundation’s 100th Class of Fellows Taps 198 Trailblazing Artists and Scholars Across 53 Fields; including Nina Berman for Photography, Columbia University in the City of New York, New York, NY. Berman's Fellowship will allow her to continue her important series "Acknowledgment of Danger ", examining the toxic legacy and continued environmental impact of US military activities on the American landscape from native lands to national forests, from major rivers to the skies above.
(New York, NY--April 15, 2025) -- The Board of Trustees of the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation announced today their appointment of the 100th class of Guggenheim Fellows, including 198 distinguished individuals working across 53 disciplines. Chosen through a rigorous application and peer review process from a pool of nearly 3,500 applicants, the Class of 2025 Guggenheim Fellows was tapped based on both prior career achievement and exceptional promise. As established in 1925 by founder Senator Simon Guggenheim, each Fellow receives a monetary stipend to pursue independent work at the highest level under “the freest possible conditions.”
The 100th class of Fellows is part of the Guggenheim Foundation’s yearlong celebration marking a century of transformative impact on American intellectual and cultural life. In addition to appointing its newest class, the Foundation also launches a refreshed brand identity and website this month and will present a special exhibit later this year in collaboration with The New York Historical, highlighting rarely-seen treasures from its vast archive.
“At a time when intellectual life is under attack, the Guggenheim Fellowship celebrates a century of support for the lives and work of visionary scientists, scholars, writers, and artists,” said Edward Hirsch, award-winning poet and President of the Guggenheim Foundation. “We believe that these creative thinkers can take on the challenges we all face today and guide our society towards a better and more hopeful future.”
In all, 53 scholarly disciplines and artistic fields, 83 academic institutions, 32 US states and the District of Columbia, and two Canadian provinces are represented in the 2025 class, who range in age from 32 to 79. More than a third of the 100th class of Fellows do not hold a full-time affiliation with a college or university. Many Fellows’ projects directly respond to timely themes and issues such as climate change, Indigenous studies, identity, democracy and politics, incarceration, and the evolving purpose of community. Since its founding in 1925, the Guggenheim Foundation has awarded over $400 million in fellowships to more than 19,000 Fellows.
A selection of Nina Berman's work will be included in our presentation at the 2025 Photography Show Presented by AIPAD at the Park Avenue Armory, April 23-27, 2025

Haviv has produced an unflinching record of the injustices of war covering over 25 conflicts, and his photography has had singular impact. His work in the Balkans, which spanned over a decade of conflict, was used as evidence to indict and convict war criminals at the international tribunal in The Hague.

Santa Fe, NM - Monroe Gallery of Photography is pleased to announce that the Toledo Museum of Art in Ohio has recently acquired two large-format prints by photographer Eugene Tapahe from his series "Art Heals: The Jingle Dress Project." The prints are titled, “Solidarity, Sisterhood,” Monument Valley, Arizona, Diné, 2020, and “Four Worlds,” Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, Cayuse, Umatilla, Newe Sogobia, and Tséstho'e, 2020.
Eugene Tapahe is a Diné (Navajo) contemporary artist and fine art photographer from Window Rock, Arizona, currently living in Provo, Utah. From an early age, Tapahe learned the significance of respecting, preserving, and protecting what is sacred—the land, water, and nature. He combines his passion for nature and culture with his educational background in graphic design, journalism, fine arts, and landscape and portrait photography to create stunning imagery. Tapahe fell in love with photography the moment he picked up a camera and discovered his unique talent for storytelling through his art. He has a deep desire to continue photographing the lands his ancestors once walked.
“Art Heals: The Jingle Dress Project” originated from Tapahe's dream during the COVID-19 pandemic, inspiring him to unite the land and people through the Ojibwe jingle dress dance in these uncertain times of sickness and social differences. Since then, Tapahe has traveled over 25,000 miles, documenting family members dancing the healing jingle dress dance in National Parks and Monuments, honoring the places where their ancestors once lived. This project has healed Tapahe’s family and ancestors and received national and international recognition for its unifying effect on other communities.
This month, “Kéyah: Our Home” by Eugene Tapahe will be exhibited at the BYU Museum of Art from January 24 to April 26, 2025. In the spring, selections from “Art Heals: The Jingle Dress Project” will be displayed by Monroe Gallery during The Photography Show presented by AIPAD at the Park Avenue Armory in New York City from April 23 to 27, 2025.
The Toledo Museum of Art was established in 1901 to share the transformative power of art with the community. Its 37-acre campus houses more than 30,000 artworks in architecturally significant buildings. Over the past several years, the museum has been working to expand its collection of Native American works of art, both historical and contemporary.
Monroe Gallery of Photography specializes in photography at the singular intersectionality of art and journalism.
The Association of International Photography Art Dealers (AIPAD) has announced its dates for next year's show, which will be returning to the Park Avenue Armory once again after this year's successful venture at this location.

"The 43rd edition of The Photography Show felt very much a homecoming for exhibitors and visitors alike. Following stints at Pier 94 and Center415, the fair returned to what many regards as its rightful home, the Park Avenue Armory. The venue itself looked better than ever and the overall quality of the works on show was excellent. But there was also something else that came into play. While most of the people I talked to described the fair as beautiful, they also pointed out that it was manageable. There were 77 exhibitors in all, plus a separate section for publishers and rare book dealers. Some art fairs have twice that number of exhibitors, if not more, and it gets exhausting, plus, quality tends to suffer." Click for full article.
White Hot Magazine: The Photography Show (AIPAD) 2024 returned this year to their previous home, the grand Park Avenue Armory.
"The Photography Show truly stepped up their game this year, bringing a new breath of Spring air by including new galleries. They have created a great visual atmosphere of the classics and newest trends of the photography world of today."
"..a wandering sweep through the booths in search of eye-catching works worth thinking about more."

Mark Peterson photographed for the NY Times feature story "The Race to Reinvent CPR".
Monroe Gallery of Photography recently announced exclusive representation of acclaimed photographer Mark Peterson for fine art print sales. His work will be included in our exhibit at The Photography Show Presented by AIPAD at the Park Avenue Armory in New York April 25-28, 2024.
Monday, March 18, 2024
Santa Fe, NM - Monroe Gallery of Photography is
honored to announce exclusive representation of acclaimed photographer Mark
Peterson for fine art print sales.
Mark Peterson is a photographer
based in New York City. His work has been published in the New York Times
Magazine, New York Magazine, The New Yorker, Time, Fortune, National
Geographic, Geo Magazine and other national and international publications. In
2018 he was awarded the W. Eugene Smith grant for his work on White
Nationalism. His many awards include a first place Feature Picture Story in the
Pictures of the Year International Competition. Peterson’s work has been
featured in numerous exhibitions including his pictures of lowriders shown in
“Museums Are Worlds” at the Louvre in 2012.
He is the author of two books:
Acts Of Charity published by Powerhouse in 2004 and Political Theatre,
published by Steidl in the fall of 2016. His work is collected in several
museums including The National Gallery of Art in Washington DC and the Museum
Of Fine Arts, Houston. In 2024 Steidl will publish his book The Fourth Wall.
Although often not beautiful, or
easy, Peterson’s images shake and disquiet us; and once seen are etched in our
memories forever. “I like a lot of chaos
in my pictures. I do like to be close to the action. It gives me a feeling of
what is happening. I want to pull back the curtain and show these politicians
as they really are.”
Monroe Gallery will exhibit several examples
of Peterson’s work at the 2024 Photography Show presented by AIPAD in booth
#A52, April 25 – 28, 2024 at The Park Avenue Armory in New York City. On
Thursday, March 21st at 7pm Eastern, The Griffin Museum hosts Mark Peterson for
an on-line conversation about his creative path, his pull to politics and what
it takes to frame his vision as part of the museum’s current focus on power and
perception, democracy and how we see and envision our elected leaders.
