APA New York is proud to announce our 4th Annual Juried Photography Exhibition opening late January 2026 at the new Chelsea location of Soho Photo Gallery.
Founded in 1971 by New York Times photojournalists and avant-garde artists, Soho Photo Gallery is the city’s longest-running cooperative photography gallery - a space that continues to champion creativity, experimentation, and community.
This year’s exhibition will be juried by Amanda Hajjar. Amanda is a curator based in the New York City area with over fifteen years of experience in the art and design field. She currently serves as Project Lead and Curator at the American Federation of Arts, where she develops and produces traveling exhibitions for museums across the country. Previously, she was the Founding Artistic Director of Fotografiska New York, leading the museum’s launch and establishing its exhibition program. Earlier in her career, she was an Artist Liaison at Gagosian, collaborating with artists and estates—including the Richard Avedon Foundation—and managed more than fifty exhibitions and contributed to six exhibition catalogues.
The show will feature 81 works from artists across the country, spanning genres such as editorial, fine art, documentary, fashion, landscape, portraiture, and experimental photography. Together, these images will celebrate the depth and diversity of contemporary photographic practice.
Join us for the artist's reception on January 29, 2026, at Soho Photo Gallery, and discover an inspiring collection of work from some of today’s most talented photographers.
