Steve Giovinco, widely exhibiting contemporary fine art photographer and graduate of the Yale University MFA Photography program, is selected for the exclusive Art Photo Index, an index of important art and documentary photographers.

Steve Giovinco was chosen as a result of his major accomplishments, exhibitions and publications in the field of art photography.

Art Photo Index (API) is a collection of carefully vetted art and documentary photographers and their work. API is for discerning curators, gallery directors, publishers, editors, picture researchers, collectors and others who love art and documentary photography. It is organized by photo eye, the established Santa Fe publisher and photography gallery.

“The Art Photo Index is an extraordinary resource designed to be used by the international fine art community. It’s exciting to be included with artists such as Martin Parr and many other highly regarded fine art photographers,” says Steve Giovinco.

Noted photographer Martin Parr says, "API is a new format for viewing and researching for a new generation of photographers, as well as some more familiar names. As the extensive collection of images are all keyworded, it becomes a new index of emerging artists at the cutting edge of art photography.”

Other photographers include Elinor Carucci, Kelli Connell, Doug DuBois, Nic Nicolsia, Bill Owens, Martin Parr, Joyce Tenneson, Brian Ulrich.

Photographers included in Art Photo Index are selected as a result of their accomplishments as fine art photographers.
