2007 JUROR
We are honored to have as our 2007 Juror, CPW's founder, Howard Greenberg. Owner and director of the Howard Greenberg Gallery in NYC Howard Greenberg is a former photographer who has become one of a small group of gallerists, curators, and historians responsible for the creation and development of the modern market for photography. The Howard Greenberg Gallery which was founded in 1981 and originally known as Photofind, was the first to consistently exhibit photojournalism and 'street' photography, now accepted as important components of photographic art.
ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHERS' FELLOWSHIP FUND
Since 1980, the Center has provided regional photographers with significant recognition and support through the Photographers' Fellowship Fund award. Each year, two $1,000 grants are given to two regional artists. There is no fee to enter, and if selected your award may be used in any way you wish to advance your creative career. If selected you will also be invited to include one of your prints in the CPW Permanent Print Collection at the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art at SUNY New Paltz. To date, CPW has awarded over $56,000 in Photographers’ Fund Fellowships to 76 artists. The 2007 Photographers' Fellowship Fund program has generously been made possible in part by individual donors. Our deepest thanks and appreciation to them and all individuals who support the arts.
