Connecting with the Collection: Photographic Portraits
This exhibition features a small selection of the many photographic portraits found in the collection of the Erie Art Museum. They represent a wide range of approaches to the genre: from formal studio-style portraits shot against simple backdrops, to composed scenes that offer contextual clues as to their subject鈥檚 identity, to documentary-style photographs and street photography.
Guest curator Brian Cohen is a photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA focusing on editorial and documentary photographs. Cohen also co-curated Out Of Many 鈥� Stories of Migration which is currently on view at the Erie Art Museum.
