'New Mexico is one of those incubators for photography that have developed across the country in apparently unlikely places—Bloomington, Indiana; Rochester, New York; Carmel, [California,]" Kate Ware, the Curator of Photography at the New Mexico Museum of Art, emailed. "Suddenly there is this extraordinary nexus of talent." A succession of outstanding teachers in the photography program at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque in the mid-20th century made it such a center, but it is Santa Fe, a city of 69,000, that was and still is a photography hot spot.
