Arizona Photography Alliance Tour of Ecstatic Time: The Alchemy of Photography at Phoenix Art Museum

Join us for a private tour and gallery talk with curator Emilia Mickevicius at Phoenix Art Museum. At this event you will have the opportunity to meet and hear perspectives about the exhibition from curator, Emilia Mickevicius as she guides members of Arizona Photography Alliance (AZPA) through Ecstatic Time: The Alchemy of Photography. Spanning the medium’s history, Ecstatic Time: The Alchemy of Photography explores how photography transforms how we see and reshapes our understanding of time, perception, and reality. While photographs are often associated with human vision, they also have the power to reveal, transform, and defamiliarize their subjects. Ecstatic Time: The Alchemy of Photography celebrates the 20-year anniversary of the landmark Norton agreement between Phoenix Art Museum and the University of Arizona’s Center for Creative Photography (CCP) in Tucson with a presentation of nearly 100 objects from the CCP’s collection, including unexpected treasures by canonical figures, captivating examples of process experimentation and images distinguished by puzzling or playful subject matter, demonstrating the breadth and inventiveness of creative photography. The tour is limited to 30 AZPA members.
