Salon #66 – Allen Frame and Alice Sachs Zimet

Join us for an in-person salon featuring Allen Frame and Alice Sachs Zimet. Allen will present his recent photobook Innamorato (Meteoro Editions, 2022) and Alice will discuss her photography collection and decades-long support of artists. Allen’s book will be available for sale at the salon.

Address will be provided when RSVP confirmed starting April 20th.

Allen Frame is a photographer and writer, based in New York and represented by Gitterman Gallery, which, in 2022, presented Whereupon, an exhibition of his black-and-white work from 1977-92.  Whereupon will be published as a book by Palermo Publishing in the summer. Frame is a winner of the 2017/2018 Abigail Cohen Rome Prize in Visual Arts from the American Academy in Rome; CEC Artslink’s Back Apartment Residency in St. Petersburg, Russia, in 2019; and was a Director’s Guest at Civitella Ranieri in Italy in 2021.
 
Innamorato (Meteoro Editions, 2022) collects three separate recent projects by Allen Frame into one book, all of them using photographs found in flea markets in Rome. In each piece, Frame features a large collection of vintage photographs pertaining to a single family or individual, and mixes in his own contemporary photographs and perspective to explore personal narratives suggested by the images.
