Phoenix Art Museum and the Center for Creative Photography welcome Audrey Sands as new photography curator
Phoenix Art Museum and the Center for Creative Photography are pleased to announce Audrey Sands, Ph.D., as the new jointly-appointed Norton Family Assistant Curator of Photography. Sands will divide her time between the two institutions, working with CCP's world-renowned collections to curate exhibitions that will be presented in the Museum's Doris and John Norton Gallery for the Center for Creative Photography. She began her role with CCP on Aug. 26 and her first day at the Museum will be Sept. 23. Sands is the second curator to hold the position, following Rebecca A. Senf, Ph.D, who now serves as the CCP's Chief Curator.
CCP is the premier research collection of American photographic fine art and archives. The institutions together represent two artistic powerhouses in the region and the nearly 40 resulting exhibitions have allowed local, regional and national audiences access to some of the most important photography of the 20th century.
The next photography exhibition organized by Phoenix Art Museum and the Center for Creative Photography, Ansel Adams: Performing the Print, curated by CCP Chief Curator Senf, opens in the Museum's Doris and John Norton Gallery for the Center for Creative Photography on Jan. 11, 2020. The exhibition has been expanded from its well-received Tucson run and now features 60 photographs, grouped in twos and threes, to show how Adams often created varying interpretations from a single narrative. Sands is currently working on an exhibition scheduled to open in summer 2020. For more information, visit phxart.org and ccp.arizona.edu.
