For the Record: Documentary Photographs from the Etherton Gallery Archive & Danny Lyon: Thirty Photographs, 1962 - 1980
Etherton Gallery is pleased to announce our new exhibition opening February 16, 2021, For the Record: Documentary Photographs from the Etherton Gallery Archive & Danny Lyon: Thirty Photographs, 1962-1980. For the Record is a presentation of documentary photographs from the 1930s to the present, selected from the gallery鈥檚 deep and varied holdings in this area. Also, on display -- images from Danny Lyon: Thirty Photographs, 1962-1980 -- a portfolio published by Etherton Gallery in collaboration with Danny Lyon. The show runs through May 29, 2021. Announcements about events and/or educational programming will be forthcoming.
For the Record highlights the broad range of styles and images that fall under the sometimes controversial category of documentary photography. At the most basic level, 鈥渄ocumentary photography is a style of photography that provides a straightforward and accurate representation of people, places, objects and events, and is often used in reportage鈥 鈥 but in truth, it is so much more.
In For the Record, documentary ranges from government funded Depression era projects such as Berenice Abbott鈥檚 Changing New York, to 1970s critiques of suburban sprawl in the work of Henry Wessel, one of the photographers featured in the highly influential 1975 exhibition, New Topographics; from W. Eugene Smith鈥檚 1950s extended LIFE Magazine photo essays like Country Doctor to Danny Lyon鈥檚 Bikeriders, Larry Clark鈥檚 Tulsa or Bruce Davidson鈥檚 seminal Brooklyn Gang series. Other photographers highlighted in the show include Diane Arbus, Alejandro Cartagena, Rodrigo Moya, Graciela Iturbide, Alex Webb, Steve McCurry, W. Eugene Smith, Garry Winogrand and many more.
