More Modernism for you

The Currier Museum seems to have chosen the "when in doubt, throw it all up" curatorial technique for their current exhibition: A New Vision: Modernist Photography. The whole show is pretty solid, with some true gems hanging alongside the standard fare (the c. 1920 aerial photograph of Edinburgh by Alfred Buckham is mesmerizing). The sheer number of images is evidence of why Modernism (still) has such a strangle-hold on popular conceptions of art. Definitely worth a visit.

Early French and British Photography Exhibit

If you have any interest in the origins of photography you should go see this small, but truly amazing, exhibition at the MFA in Boston.

Each catalog is numbered and has a hand-stitched cover with a signed and numbered 5x7 print tipped in. The edition is limited to 20 catalogs.
