Etherton Gallery
Downtown Tucson · Tucson, Arizona
Etherton Gallery has been the premier destination for fine art photography in the American Southwest since its founding in 1981, building a program that spans 19th-century documentary photography - frontier surveys, ethnographic portraits, early landscape work from the era before the railroads - to contemporary fine art photographers working in traditions that connect directly to that history. The gallery has introduced important bodies of work to Arizona audiences and built significant collections for institutions and private buyers who recognized the historical and aesthetic importance of what it was showing. Etherton is known for scholarly depth: the staff can discuss provenance, process, and photographic history with genuine authority, making it as useful as a resource as it is as a gallery.
