The Alan Klotz Gallery formerly Photocollect, Inc. exists in the actual world as well as in the virtual. We have been dealers in fine 19th and 20th century vintage photography and emerging contemporary work for the past 25 years. My how time flies when you’re having fun. During that time we have sold many important photographs to the finest museums and private collections from New York, where we are, to Tokyo, Sydney and Hong Kong, where we are not. The Alan Klotz Gallery is a member of the Association of International Photography Art Dealers. We do the major trade shows and travel extensively to buy as well as to sell. At home we hold Collector’s Seminars to attract and encourage new collectors. It seems that providing education is one of our major endeavors, and we love to do it. Collecting confidence comes out of knowledge not hype. We also act as auction purchasing consultants and agents. When you come to New York please come by for a visit at the gallery. If you need more information about where we are, click here. We are open Wednesday – Saturday from 11 – 6pm and Tuesday by appointment. We have special summer hours, so in the summer please call.

He has an MFA in photography with a concentration in museum practice from the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, NY. While there he studied primarily with Nathan Lyons the Workshop’s director, and the late Beaumont Newhall, the preeminent photographic historian, and the then director of the International Museum of Photography at the George Eastman House. Mr. Klotz was an intern at the Eastman House where he worked with the Alvin Langdon Coburn Estate. He studied printmaking and bookmaking with Joan Lyons and took workshops with such notables as Robert Frank, Frederick Sommer and Dave Heath. While in Rochester he also worked for channel 21 PBS Rochester as a cultural reporter and critic and produced a documentary film on dissent in the Soviet Union which aired in several PBS venues. His teaching career spans 25 years beginning in Rochester where he taught history and criticism at the Rochester Institute of Technology and supervised the graduate photography gallery. Since then he has taught at the Rhode Island School of Design, the ICPNYU program, and at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY. He has lectured extensively here and abroad and has written numerous articles, reviews and book essays on photography. He began Photocollect gallery in 1977 and divides his time between New York City and Stone Ridge, NY where he gardens, cooks, and does carpentry work on his never to be finished house in the silence of the Catskills.
