Two Guggenheim Fellowships in Photography, two NEA Grants, two New York State Council Fellowships, and The Seattle Arts Council Grant are among the numerous awards, grants and fellowships that Fink has received during the past forty years. His long list of solo exhibitions includes the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, the San Francisco Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Kunst Museum, Dusseldorf, Germany. His works appear in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris France. A retrospective of Fink?s works toured France and the United States in late 2000. Fink captures moments between people interacting in ordinary circumstances. Sometimes his subjects are from the poorest segment in society and other times he focuses on the privileged among us. No matter who Fink elects to portray, he shows a warmth and sensitivity toward his subjects.
