Aurora PhotoCenter at Gallery 924 (COVID requirements for Gallery 924)

Aurora PhotoCenter, in partnership with Gallery 924 and the Arts Council of Indianapolis, presents the group exhibition New Photography 2022. This exhibition showcases topical subjects, themes, modalities, and methods that are engaging Central Indiana photographers now, in this important moment. Featured artists include Arria Woolcock, Asli Narin, Cary Benbow, Claire Hegge, Jenna Mesker, Matthew Carroll, Savannah Calhoun, Stefan Petranek, Steve Nyktas, and Torry Brown.

Since Aurora’s last exhibition at Gallery 924 in November 2019, the world has experienced seismic changes, with the pandemic, protests for racial, social, and economic justice, and shifts in how we work and make work, go to school, and live. Many in our Central Indiana arts community relied on photography as a means to document and respond to the changes of the last two years. Photography helped us keep a record, keep us sane, and keep us creating with beauty, revelations, and new directions for exploration.

New Photography 2022 highlights photographic work made by Central Indiana artists on or after January 1, 2020.
