ABSTRACT : Since its founding in 1989, the Danziger Gallery has established itself as one of the leading photography venues in the world, known for the originality and diversity of its programming, its representation of established photographers, and the quality of its new discoveries. The gallery was the first to show Susan Derges’ "camera-less" photographs; to put on multiple exhibitions shedding new light on the work of Cartier-Bresson and Robert Frank; to introduce the acclaimed work of artists such as Yuji Obata, Alice Mann, and Jim Krantz; and to represent such important photographers as Tod Papageorge, Susan Meiselas, Karen Knorr, and the estates of Evelyn Hofer, Seydou Keïta, and Paul Fusco. In its over 30 year history the gallery has moved from Soho to Chelsea to Madison Avenue, but with the advent of Covid the gallery moved to a three room space overlooking Central Park (open by appointment). In conjunction with original online exhibitions, the gallery now mounts major shows while also responding to new artists and the ongoing technological evolution of the medium and the business. Encouraging original collaborations, our programming now pulls from the worlds of art, new media, and print to create an up to date vision of photography's place in the world.
