Our first member exclusive event of the year, in conversation with writer, curator, and International Head of Photographs at Christie’s Darius Himes, offering his review of the 2020 art market from the field of photography, and an introduction to this year's upcoming auctions and market highlights. Followed by an open Q&A.

Darius Himes oversees a global team in three locations producing auctions, exhibitions and catalogues as International Head of Photographs at Christie's. Prior to joining Christie’s in Fall 2014, Himes was director of Fraenkel Gallery, San Francisco from 2011–2014.

In 2007 he co-founded Radius Books, a non-profit publisher of books on photography and the visual arts. While working with artists such as John McCracken and Lee Friedlander, he is most proud of publishing first monographs for over a dozen emerging artists. He was the founding editor of photo-eye Booklist, a quarterly journal devoted to photography books, which ran from 2002–2007.

A lecturer and writer, he has contributed to Aperture, Blind Spot, Bookforum, and BOMB. His most recent book, Publish Your Photography Book, co-authored with Mary Virginia Swanson, was released by Princeton Architectural Press in the Spring of 2011, with an updated 2nd edition published in the Spring of 2014. Himes completed his Master of Arts in Liberal Arts at St. John's College in 2000, and received a BFA in Photography from Arizona State University.
