AIPAD: The Photography Show: The Park Avenue Armory
The Photography Show presented by AIPAD, the longest-running fair dedicated
to photography in the world, will take place April 23-27, 2025 at the Park Avenue
Armory, with exhibitors from around the globe unveiling an exciting and diverse mix
of work that reflects a fluid and dynamic understanding of the photographic
medium.
The Photography Show showcases exceptional presentations by esteemed
members of the Association of International Photography Art Dealers (AIPAD), along
with guest exhibitors and galleries new to the fair. The upcoming iteration of the fair
represents its continued evolution since returning to the Park Avenue Armory in
2024, with an emphasis on emerging artists, young galleries and new curatorial
approaches being placed in dialogue with canonical photographers and legacy
photography institutions.
AIPAD welcomes new members Galeria Alta, Galerie Julian Sander, LARGE GLASS
and Ungallery, coming to New York in April from Andorra; Cologne, Germany;
London, UK and Buenos Aires, Argentina. Exhibiting at The Photography Show for
the first time, their presentations will push the boundaries of photography and
provide new perspectives alongside the many established, long-time exhibitors.
Complementing these presentations and in tandem with an added day for this
year’s fair, The Photography Show will feature an expanded and robust slate of
programming. Four days of AIPAD Talks, hosted by thought leaders in the arts and
culture space, will be accompanied by insightful walkthroughs and educational
events. The celebration of the prestigious AIPAD Award, presented annually to a
pioneer in the community, recognizing them for changing the ways we perceive
photography, will take place during the new Opening Night Party on Wednesday,
April 23. The fair will utilize a new layout and floor plan that will see publishers
brought into the main exhibition space, the Wade Thompson Drill Hall, highlighting
the importance of book publishing within the landscape of contemporary
photography.
