The Light Work Permanent
Collection
There are currently around 2,400 works of art in Light Work's permanent collection. The collection contains all original work, including color and black-and-white photographic prints, alternative processes, as well as computer generated imagery, collages, artist books, and installation pieces.
The collection consists primarily of work made by artists who have participated
in the Artist-in-Residence program and past Light Work Grant recipients. Because
we encourage participation by a variety of emerging and under-represented artists,
Light Work's collection is an extensive and diverse archive for the mapping of
trends and developments in contemporary photography. This noteworthy collection
includes all genres of expression found in contemporary photography, including
documentary, abstract, experimental, and conceptual work. Many of the images
capture and document the social history of the Central and Upstate New York regions.
The collection also serves as an important document of Light Work's history of
support for artists and their creative process.
