Today’s edition is dedicated to The Photography Show presented by AIPAD, the longest-running fair dedicated to photography in the world. It takes 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. Among the large numbers of exhibitors, we selected a few of our favourites for this edition which is exceptionally offered in complete and free access to all.
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.
Discovery Sector
AIPAD will debut its reenvisioned Discovery Sector for the 2025 edition of The Photography Show. Reflecting its renewed commitment to platforming new and emerging galleries, these booths will showcase single-artist or theme presentations alongside focused historical exhibitions. The Discovery Sector will provide viewers with opportunities to not only encounter new examples of photography and curation, but to re-discover the work of some of the medium’s most iconic practitioners as well.
