Indepth Arts News: "Robert Frank: A Retrospective from the Collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston" 2001-07-14 until 2001-10-14 Museum of Fine Arts, Houston Houston, TX, USA
Robert Frank sucked a sad poem right out of America, as the Beat
Generation writer Jack Kerouac remarked in the introduction to The
Americans.
In September, the MFAH film department will present a program of
Frank's films, including About Me: A Musical, a 1971 film that has
been restored by the museum through a challenge grant from the
American Film Institute and the National Endowment for the Arts, a
federal agency.

America in the mid-1950s. These photographs are shown in the
context of his early photographs of Europe in the late 1940s and the

New York and Nova Scotia.
