ICP Crit Lab: With Mickey Alosio

Grow Your Portfolio. Elevate Your Practice.

ICP's version of a master class, the Crit Lab is designed to take your photography to the next level. Join acclaimed artist and educator Mickey Aloisio for an intensive portfolio development experience focused on refining your vision, strengthening your body of work, and deepening your artistic practice.

Open to photographers working across genres and approaches, this course provides a rigorous yet supportive environment for critical dialogue, portfolio review, and creative growth. Through group critiques, individualized feedback, and discussions centered on contemporary photographic practice, students clarify their artistic direction, strengthen project cohesion, and develop a more confident and distinctive visual voice.

Aloisio brings a wealth of experience as an exhibiting artist whose work has been recognized internationally. He is the recipient of numerous honors, including the Eliza Prize from the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; the Pride Photo Award Open Category First Prize in Amsterdam; and grants from the Yale School of Art and the Café Royal Cultural Foundation. A former Core Fellow at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and an AIM Fellow at the Bronx Museum, Aloisio recently presented his first solo exhibition at Marlborough Gallery in New York.

Whether you are preparing for exhibitions, graduate school applications, or grants, or simply seeking to push your work further, this Crit Lab offers the structure, feedback, and community needed to advance your practice. This course is limited to 10 students.
