Exhibits On View  
Memory and the Photographic Image
Walker Evans, Untitled, ca. 1936

April 14-September 9      

 

Memory plays a role in a photographer's choice of subject and its interpretation, creating images that could become the only record of a moment passed. But photographs can be manipulated, so is this record truthful? This exhibition looks at the ways artists translate personal memories onto film.
