We are thrilled to announce Keisha Scarville is the winner of the inaugural Saltzman Prize. Presented by The Centre for Photography at Woodstock (CPW) in cooperation with PHOTOFAIRS New York, the Saltzman Prize recognizes extraordinary achievement by an emerging photographer, one whose work has recently gained visibility and whose voice adds new perspectives to the discussion around photography and visual culture.
Scarville was awarded the prize at the CPW Vision Awards in Kingston, NY, on April 20, 2024. She will also receive a $10,000 award, and a solo exhibition of her work at CPW’s booth at PHOTOFAIRS New York (Javits Center, New York, September 6–8, 2024).
Scarville was a CPW Woodstock AIR (artist-in-residence) in 2003. In accepting her prize, she said, “I am deeply honored to be the recipient of the inaugural Saltzman Prize. CPW holds such a significant place in my development and journey as an image maker, and I feel immense gratitude to be part of such a rich and brilliant legacy.”
