This spring, Space SBH Contemporary Art Gallery is highlighting the importance of photography by hosting an exhibit, “An Introduction to Photography.”
Photography is an engaging and accessible medium to collect and is now considered as valid and collectible an art form as painting, as evidenced by photography sales results at auction. The photography market is robust and diverse, and there’s a lot to see which can be daunting.

“The gallery has put together a group of lesser known and emerging photographers to show new talent,” says Natalie Clifford, gallerist at Space SBH. “The idea behind the exhibition is to make artwork more accessible and this show comprises smaller pieces and for smaller prices.”
The show will feature some of the gallery's regular artists as well as introduce some new ones including Anne Valverde, Gabriella Imperatori-Penn, and St Barth-based Jerome Rapin. “It is the perfect occasion to discover new works and to start your own collection, or add some beautiful little gems to your existing one,” adds Clifford.
An opening cocktail will be held at the gallery on Thursday April 13, from 6-8pm, with several of the artists present. Stop by for a drink and get involved in the world of photography.
