The International Center of Photography’s Infinity Awards honor outstanding achievements in photography and visual arts. In 2023, we recognize artists working in photojournalism, contemporary photography, new media, and critical writing, research, and theory. All proceeds from the Infinity Awards directly benefit ICP’s education and exhibition programs, providing critical funding for the entire institution.
Zora J Murff (born in Des Moines, Iowa, 1987) is an artist and educator living in Northwest Arkansas. In 2019, Murff was named an Aperture Portfolio Prize finalist, a PDN 30 honoree, and a Light Work Artist-in Residence; he was one of eight artists chosen for the most recent iteration of the Museum of Modern Art’s New Photography series, Companion Pieces: New Photography 2020. Murff’s books include Corrections (2015); LOST, Omaha (2018); and At No Point In Between (2019). His work was presented at the 2021 Rencontres d’Arles, France, as part of the Louis Roederer Discovery Award and his works are housed in many notable US institutions and collections.
“Zora J Murff. He is Black; therefore, he is.”
