Exhibition at the National Museum in Norway focuses on documentary and portrait photography
(Artdaily.org)
 


The exhibition “SNAP: Documentary and Portrait Photography from the Collection” showcases photographic art ranging from the genre’s nineteenth-century infancy until today’s neo-conceptual offerings. The exhibition addresses the following questions: • What inspired documentary photographers during the 1880s, 1960s, and 1990s? • What characterizes subjective and objective portraiture? The questions are being answered by way of 100 works from 30 Norwegian and international photographers. The exhibition guides us through three key periods in documentary photography: the pioneers Jacob Riis (1849–1914) and Lewis Hine (1874–1940), on loan from the Preus Museum; the 1960s, with highlights by Christer Strömholm from the National Museum’s Robert Meyer Collection and from the Norwegian-American photography agency Manité; and the 1990s, with Nan Goldin’s personal documentaries, Dag Alveng’s and Esko Männikkö’s slice-of-life
