Photography holds a unique power of fascination. It
speaks directly to us and captures a suggestive
moment better than any other medium. Some pictures
simply have the ability to burn themselves into our
memory, making us remember them years on.
The exhibition THE DESIRING EYE presents art
photography’s development from the 1840s to the
1980s. The hanging follows photography’s
chronological development, and the photographs have
been divided into six sections: early portrait photography, early travel photography, Pictorialism, Atget, Man Ray: the city and Surrealism, New Objectivity and American modernism.
