The Photo Review Benefit Auction has been rescheduled for November 21, 2009 at 7 p.m. at the University of the Arts, Dorrance-Hamilton Building, Broad and Pine Streets, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 

The event has been rescheduled due to a medical emergency. In October, Stephen Perloff, editor of The Photo Review, suffered a heart attack that will keep him out of commission for several weeks. (He's recovering fine, thank you.)

Jeffrey Fuller of Fuller’s Fine Art Auctions will act as guest auctioneer for the evening. The Photo Review Editorial Assistant Naomi Mindlin will coordinate the event.

The Photo Review Benefit Auction is now online at http://www.photoreview.org/auction.htm. You can preview the work and submit absentee bids.
