Photography Exhibition: The Museum of Photographic Arts - Picturing the Process: The Photograph as Witness

The Museum of Photographic Arts in San Diego, CA, continually has great photography exhibitions. Picturing the Process: The Photograph as Witness is particularly interesting. If you’re in the San Diego area in the next few months, don’t miss this exhibition. I’ll be there in December.

The exhibition will run through February 6, 2010.

The fourth in a series of educational based exhibitions presented by the Education Department at MoPA, the exhibition explores the variety of ways that photographers and photographs document people, places and events throughout history. The Photograph As Witness presents a selection of approaches to the genre of documentary photography, from the image as a representation of war, photographs that focus on the human condition, and photographers who document the public and personal spheres. The exhibition also examines the relationship between the documentary image and the concept of the photograph as reality.

As I travel, I love seeing the work of other photographers as I hope you do. If you know of a new photographic exhibition which you think the Blog should publicize, please contact me.
