Refreshing Turn to Craft at AIPAD’s Photography Show
The AIPAD Photography Show, a major fair dedicated to fine art photography, took a refreshing turn by emphasizing craft and handmade processes. The event featured a notable shift away from purely digital and commercial photography, highlighting works that incorporate traditional techniques such as cyanotypes, photogravures, and hand-applied color. Galleries presented pieces that blurred the line between photography and other media, including mixed-media works and artist books, reflecting a growing interest in the tactile and artisanal aspects of the medium.
