Jennifer Blessing, Senior Curator, Photography joined the curatorial staff at the Guggenheim in 2002, after previously working at the museum from 1989-97.

Kirsten Hoving is a photographer and multimedia artist from Charleston, SC, whose art balances on the edge between fact and fiction. Hers is an art of transcendence, and she frequently combines photographs with unusual processes, materials, and presentations to evoke quiet dreams and half-remembered tales. Using unexpected viewpoints, three-dimensionality, and kinetic elements, she expands photography's decisive moments into visionary states of wonder. Our imagination, she believes, is what makes us human, and our ability to see the world through metaphors, stories, and poetic allusions connects our minds to our hearts. Over the last fifteen years, Hoving has shown her work in galleries around the world and has published several books of her work, including Svala's Saga, a project done in collaboration with photographer Emma Powell. With a Ph.D. in art history from Columbia University, Hoving had a long career as a professor and scholar of modern art, with books and articles on many topics, including Surrealist photography and the assemblages of Joseph Cornell. Ralph Rugoff OBE (born 12 January 1957) is an American-born curator, the director of London's Hayward Gallery since 2006, and the curator of the Venice Biennale in 2019.

Rugoff was director of the Wattis Institute for Contemporary Arts in San Francisco for nearly six years, before becoming the director of London's Hayward Gallery. Rugoff was artistic director of the 58th Venice Biennale in 2019. He was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2019 Birthday Honours for services to art In October 1993, Henry M. Buhl purchased Alfred Stieglitz's photograph of Georgia O'Keeffe's hands. This photograph became the cornerstone of his private collection that now includes over 1,000 images by the medium's foremost practitioners, as well as little-known and emerging artists. From a photogenic drawing negative made in 1840 by William Henry Fox Talbot to serial Polaroids made in 2002 by Cornelia Parker, the collection encompasses a wide range of photographic practices--scientific, journalistic, and fine art photography--with a strong component of contemporary art. Published on the occasion of a major exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum, these beautiful and poetic reproductions demonstrate the prevalence of the hand as a photographic theme; a result of photography's easy ability to captu.
