The Pioneering Photography of Bradford Washburn - John Hagen, Anchorage Museum

  • Summary

  • John Hagen is the Curator of Indigenous Art and Initiatives at the Anchorage Museum. Hagen works to further the Museum's work with Alaska living cultures, with an emphasis on Indigenous art, artists, climate change, national and international connections, and other initiatives. He is the curator of the exhibit currently on display at the Museum, Alaska from Above: The Art of Bradford Washburn. Hagen is Iupiaq, Unangax, Irish, and Danish. His work at the museum incorporates a longstanding passion for photography. As a professional photojournalist, he published newspaper photographs by the tightest deadlines. After studying New Media Arts at the Institute of American Indian Arts in New Mexico, John returned to Alaska and found himself empowered to tell his own story, with his work shifting from that of a photographer seeking publication to an artist desiring to express himself.
