Barbara Alper’s long career as a photojournalist, street photographer, and fine art photographer is well-represented in our selection of items available through our partnership with Getty Images Gallery. Now, Barbara is opening her personal photo archive to offer collectors access to a selection of vintage prints.

Barbara and I got together via Zoom to talk about her art practice and some favourite pictures from her archives. We covered a lot of ground, which I’ve broken up into two elements; a 15-minute video tour of vintage prints conducted by Barbara from her studio in New York City, followed by additional transcribed commentary from Barbara outlining aspects of her life and career.
