Photography from the Gloria Katz and Willard Huyck Collection
Celebrating the Freer|Sacklerʼs recent acquisition of a major Japanese photography collection, this exhibition features a selection of works by groundbreaking twentieth-century photographers. Whether capturing evocative landscapes or the gritty realities of postwar Japan, this presentation focuses on Japanese artistsʼ search for a sense of place in a rapidly changing country.
The images highlight destinations both rural and urban, in styles ranging from powerful social documentary to intensely personal. A selection of photobooks and experimental films adds to this multifaceted exploration. Complemented by "Japan Modern: Prints in the Age of Photography"
