Photography in Motion

“A picture is a secret about a secret, the more it tells you the less you know.”― Diane Arbus
On The Town by Rose Hartman
Each and every April, I look forward to attending AIPAD (the Association of International photo Dealers). As a professional photographer and art lover, AIPAD‘s reputation for the highest quality images never disappoints. As I entered the drill hall of the Park Avenue armory, I was greeted with contemporary work, mid-century classics, and early cameraless works. During the VIP preview, art dealers visited each others’ booths to ogle such works as the U.S. fashion duo, Foremento and Formento (a young married couple who work together) at the Robert Klein
gallery; Michael Chelbin’s “Jenya In My Hotel Room” at the Andrea Meislin gallery in NY., Ed Burtansky’s “Rice Terrace3” at the Bryce Wolkowitz gallery; Aldo Sessa’s “American Flag and Statue of Liberty” at the Throckmorton Gallery and Bert Stern’s memorable “The Last Sitting” at Staley-Wise.
Below is a selection of my favorite photo dealers, curators, photographers, and art aficionados.
