Menschel presents an engaging survey of The Museum of Modern Art's multifaceted collection of photography. Borrowing its title from the eponymous work by Carrie Mae Weems, the exhibition is drawn entirely from works acquired over the past 40 years with the support of Robert B. Menschel, telling the story of photography from its beginnings. Covering more than 150 years of photography--from an 1843 view of Paris by William Henry Fox Talbot, the English father of photography, to An-My LeÌ's depictions of US military exercises in preparation for war in Iraq and Afghanistan--the exhibition underscores an equal attention to the past and the present, and a strong belief that they complement each other; and that each generation reinvents photography. Since Menschel joined the Committee on Photography at MoMA in 1977, over 500 works have entered the collection through his support, including 162 photographs he recently donated from his personal collection"--Provided by publisher. 520 8 $a "This survey explores 60 remarkable photographs from the collection of The Museum of Modern Art, all acquired with the support of Robert B. Menschel and meticulously selected for the book by the museum's chief curator of photography, Quentin Bajac. Ranging from the contemporary artist Andreas Gursky to William Henry Fox Talbot, one of the medium's founding figures, these works collectively tell the story of photography from its beginnings, but upend and newly illuminate that story through their arrangement in reverse chronological order. Each image is the subject of a brief, elegant text. The book borrows its title from a work by Carrie Mae Weems, one of the many great photographs that Menschel has contributed to the collection."--Artbook& website (viewed November 14, 2016) 610 20 $a Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.) $x Photograph collections $v Exhibitions. 600 10 $a Menschel, Robert $x Photograph collections $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Photography $x History $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Photograph collections $z New York $z New York $v Exhibitions. 610 27 $a Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00530348 650 7 $a Photography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01061714 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1424028 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1424028 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026098 655 07 $c v $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 aat $0 http://vocab.getty.edu/aat/300026096 700 1 $a Menschel, Robert, $e museum trustee. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2002109533 700 1 $a Bajac, Quentin, $e author. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nr97028378 700 1 $a Meister, Sarah Hermanson, $e writer of supplementary texual content. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2003017023 710 2 $a Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.), $e host institution. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021281 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180111054443.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9FB1D10EF69E11E78A00251D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
