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).

Gaston County considering defunding history museum; comes less than a year after a dispute between county officials and the museum over a photo of two men kissing

Via The Gaston Gazette
March 29, 2023

"Gaston County officials are considering defunding the Museum of Art and History, a move that could, according to some, force the museum to close its doors.....County Manager Kim Eagle brought up the museum, which is located in Dallas, at a county work session on Tuesday, asking for input from the Board of Commissioners on whether to continue funding the museum as a county department.

The talk of pulling funding comes less than a year after a dispute between county officials and the museum over a photo of two men kissing that the county manager ordered to be pulled from an exhibit."

Monroe Gallery announces representation of the Sonia Handelman Meyer estate

SANTA FE, NM.- Monroe Gallery of Photography has announced its representation of the Sonia Handelman Estate, and will exhibit a selection of lifetime and vintage prints at the 2023 AIPAD Photography Show in New York City March 31-April 2 and present a 2-person exhibit with Ida Wyman: “Pioneering Women of The Photo League” at Monroe Gallery in Santa Fe, April 21-June 18, 2023.

The Photo League was a collective of photographers active between 1936-1951 who believed their work could change poor social conditions and champion photography as an art form in the process. The Photo League thrived as one of the most progressive, dynamic and creative centers for photography in America, and was unusual in its time as many of the collective’s members were women. In the 1940s when McCarthyism started gathering momentum in the US, suspicious authorities decided to clamp down on the Photo League’s confrontational and uncensored representations of urban American society. In 1948, it was declared a subversive organization and blacklisted. As the league’s secretary at the time, Sonia Handelman Meyer answered the office phone when requests for comment about the accusations poured in from the media. “It got to be too much,” she told The New York Times. “They were blacklisting people”.

Sonia Handelman was born on Feb. 12, 1920, in Lakewood, N.J., and grew up in New York City. Her parents were Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe. After graduating college in 1941, Handelman Meyer worked during World War II in the Office of War Information for the U.S. Signal Corps in Puerto Rico, and the Office of War Information in New York, and then at a news photography agency. In 1943 she joined the Photo League, where she studied with John Ebstel and Sid Grossman. She also served as secretary (the only paid position at the League) and, in 1948-50, as chair of the Hine Committee. She participated in several group exhibitions, including "This Is the Photo League" (1948–49). Handelman Meyer collaborated with Morris Huberland on a photographic series of Sydenham Hospital in Harlem (1947) and photographed in neighborhoods throughout New York. She later documented the Weavers, the American folk group that included Pete Seeger. Her photographs appeared in The New York Times (1947–48) and U.S. Camera Annual (1947). Her photographs also appeared in the exhibition "Photographic Crossroads: The Photo League" at the International Center of Photography, New York (1978) and "The Women of Photo League" at Higher Pictures Gallery, New York (2009).

Sonia Handelman Meyer died on September 11, 2022, at her home in Charlotte, N.C., at age 102.

Sonia Handelman Meyer’s work went unrecognized for decades. In recent years, there has been a revived interest in the radical collective that contributed incomparably towards promoting early street photography as an art form.
