''The Times Remembered'' at Tamsen Munger Gallery
Bits of history are captured in "The Times Remembered," an exhibition of memorable photographs from the New Your Times Photo Archives - from the Wright Brothers first flight to the Hindenberg exploding to rounding up wild horses in California in 1930 - opening at Tamsen Munger Gallery, opening Friday, June 6th 2003 and running through Saturday, July 12th 2003. Works by major photographers Alfred Stieglitz, Edward S. Curtis, Berenie Abbott and Andreas Feininger are included in the exhibit. Most of the photographs come from the vast picture library of the New York Times, the repository for more than seven-million prints and negatives. Other significant archives are represented as well, including George Eastman House, Edward S. Curtis Archives, Hulton getty, Bettmann/Corbis, The New-York Historical Society and the Museum of the City of New York. The photos dramatize the power of the image to delight, shock, inspire and inform. Lodged in our collective memories, they remind us how profoundly photography has shaped our perceptions, and how important it can be to remember.
Photographs in a variety of sizes are available for purchase through the gallery. All black-and-white images are exhibition-quality silver-gelatin matte prints on archival fiber-based paper, and are embossed with The New York Times Photo Collection stamp. Of the three locations in the United States Tamsen Munger Gallery is the only west coast venue.
