"Boy with Iguanas and Other Selections from the Photography Collection"
2000-08-05 until 2000-10-01
Columbus Museum of Art
Columbus, OH, USA United States of America

Take a fresh look at the Museum’s expanding photography holdings and learn the art of building a meaningful collection. By placing new additions side-by-side with important mainstays of the collection, this exhibition demonstrates how curators choose new work to complement and diversify a relatively young collection.

The Museum purchased seven photographs from the Artificial Reality exhibition of Soviet Socialist Realism, as well as works ranging from a nineteenth-century carbon print by the celebrated Adolphe Braun to contemporary color photographs made in Honduras and Mexico by Jeff Becom. It also includes a four-part panorama of the Grand Canyon by Joseph Vitone. The exhibition features the works of such heavyweights as Alfred Stieglitz and Harry Callahan and also the works of emerging artists.
