WIPNYC was launched in June of 2008 by artists Amy Elkins and Cara Phillips. As an internet-based project, WIPNYC is an outlet to exhibit work outside of the traditional model of the commercial art world, allowing it to reach a global audience. Mixing emerging photographers with artists that have achieved high levels of success within fine art and commercial worlds, the project is designed to be a resource for photographers, editors, curators, gallery owners, and viewers alike to discover and enjoy the work of female artists. Exhibitions include artists both selected from an open submission and those sought out to participate. WIPNYC presents a solo exhibition of work from select photographers every third Tuesday of the month. Co-curated by Amy Elkins and Cara Phillips, Women in Photography is a Humble Arts Foundation project.
