El Centro Fotográfico Manuel Álvarez Bravo (CFMAB) was formed as
a nonprofit association in September 1996 by Francisco Toledo. Located in a
colonial era home, it has rooms for temporary exhibitions devoted to
photography, and a library specializing in history, theory, technique and
dissemination of photography. There
is also an associated Music Library with recordings of various music genres
(classical, jazz, blues, ethnic, etc.).
Workshops, book presentations and portfolios, screenings and
guided tours are offered by the Photographic Center as part of commitment to
promoting photographic work. It has a black and white professional laboratory,
used in workshop sessions and can be used by previously accredited photographers.
The photographic collection Joseph F. Gómez was established in
1989 with collections of Joseph F. Gomez, Ignacio Zanabria and Manuel Alvarez
Bravo acquired by Francisco Toledo.
