Silverstein Photography is pleased to announce the first Silverstein Photography Annual (SPA). This year’s exhibition features a selection of works by ten emerging photographers, each having been nominated by a member of the curatorial community representing institutions throughout the United States.

“We are constantly seeking ways to enhance our representation of photography, offering a greater perspective on the past, present and future of the medium. SPA gives us this opportunity - to continue to embrace new and important ideas, to reach out to the art community around the world, and to welcome those who deserve to be seen and heard but who might not have had the chance. We are grateful to be in a position to make such a commitment.” Bruce Silverstein
