Join us as we dive deeper into Photography as a Way of Life on this members-only tour. Explore the overlapping careers of Minor White, Aaron Siskind, and Harry Callahan, profoundly influential photographers, teachers, and thinkers who redefined photography in the mid-twentieth century.
Amid photography’s increasing recognition as an art form in the 1950s and 60s, these three artists carved out a new role and status for the medium, building a devoted audience for their work and shaping the aspirations of the era. Though they came from distinct backgrounds and visual traditions, they converged around their inclinations toward abstraction and deeply personal expression and a shared belief that photography could sustain a life’s work.
