- Harry Callahan: American Photographer
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston MA
Saturday, November 21, 2009 - Saturday, July 3, 2010
Harry Callahan was
one of the most innovative photographers working in America in the mid-twentieth
century. Images of his wife, Eleanor; passers-by on the street; cityscapes;
landscapes; close-ups from nature; multiple exposures; and darkroom abstractions
reveal the elegantly spare formalism and lyricism of his style. Callahan's
wide-ranging and experimental approach to photography influenced a generation
of American photographers, including students at Chicago's Institute of Design
where he taught from 1945-61, and at the Rhode Island School of Design where
he taught in the 1960s and 1970s. "Harry Callahan: American Photographer" features
black-and-white and color photographs that survey major aspects of his remarkable
career.
