On the evening of Monday, May
10, 2010, the International Center of
Photography honored nine recipients at the
26th Annual Infinity Awards, this country’s
leading awards for excellence in the field
of photography, at a gala event at Chelsea
Piers, Pier Sixty, New York City.
Each year, ICP takes this
opportunity to bring public attention to
outstanding photographic achievements by
honoring distinguished individuals and
identifying future luminaries.
ICP’s
ongoing mission is to present and champion
the variety inherent in photographic
experience. The Infinity Awards, first
presented in 1985, were created to recognize
the contributions of influential
photographers and emerging young talent.
This program attracts an audience of more
than 700 prominent guests annually from the
photography, art, and fashion worlds. It
celebrates an international group of
accomplished individuals who are receiving
what is widely recognized as the most
coveted honor in photography. Recipients
are chosen by a jury from submissions
complied by a changing international
nominating committee.
