Snapshots from the Peter J. Cohen Collection
This exhibition offers a glimpse into the lives of strangers from throughout the 20th century, by way of the anonymous snapshots that they have left behind. About 300 found photographs drawn from the collection of Peter J. Cohen demonstrate how the invention of the camera revolutionised how ordinary people recorded their daily lives. As silver gelatin photographs become obsolete, pushed aside in a new wave of digital photography, this display can also be seen as a chapter in the unfinished story of the medium itself.
