Special Exhibitions
Innovation To celebrate the 30th anniversary of AIPAD, The AIPAD Photography Show New York will present a thematic "exhibition within an exhibition." From daguerreotype to new media, each gallery will highlight a work that reflects an innovation - such as a technical or artistic development or a seminal work - in the history of photography. A complete catalogue of the Innovation special exhibition, including images and wall text, will be available at www.aipad.com.
Cause & Effect The Center for the Legacy of Photography, a new initiative of George Eastman House and the Image Permanence Institute at Rochester Institute of Technology, will present a special exhibition that includes vintage photographic prints drawn from George Eastman House's extensive collection. The exhibition will provide insight into historic cause-and-effect relationships of materials and processes.
