Following the recent death of Colin Ford CBE Amgueddfa Cymru–Museum Wales has announced the establishment of the Colin Ford Endowment Fund. Before his death Colin gifted his personal collection of photography books, which reflects a lifetime’s worth of collecting, to the museum. The endowment fund will support the on-going purchase of photography books to continue to grow the Colin Ford Photography Library and reflect current photographic scholarship, curation and practice.
Colin Ford CBE HonFRPS was the Director General of Amgueddfa Cymru from 1993 to 1998. He was a curator, historian, museum director and broadcaster, whose professional life was largely dedicated to photography. His personal papers have been donated to the Bodleian Library, Oxford.
