The Milwaukee Art Museum Presents: Street Seen on February 25
Ray Kehm, docent from the Milwaukee Art Museum, presents an audio-visual presentation on the Museum's 2010 exhibit of the year, Street Seen: The Psychological Gesture in American Photography, 1940-1959. The presentation provides an in-depth look at six photographers - Lisette Model, Louis Faurer, Ted Croner, Saul Leiter, William Klein, and Robert Frank - active during the 40s and 50s whose work is grounded in the emotional and dramatic changes of that era. The presentation is participatory, and the audience is encouraged to ask questions and make their own observations.
This free program is open to all members of the public, and no advanced registration is required.
"This show breaks important new ground in our understanding of life and culture in midcentury America no small feat for such a mythologized era."
Mary Louise Schumacher, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
