International Center of Photography

Since its founding in 1974 by Cornell Capa (1918–2008) in the historic Willard Straight House, ICP has presented over 500 exhibitions, bringing the work of more than 3,000 photographers and other artists to the public in one-person and group exhibitions and provided thousands of classes and workshops that have enriched tens of thousands of students. ICP was founded as an institution to keep the legacy of "Concerned Photography" alive and has seen enormous growth in its exhibitions, collections, education programs, and staff. All kinds of photography were included in this expansion.
