Subjective Objectivity: Documentary Photography as Fragments of Experience
About the Exhibition
Fifteen weeks. Eight 久久热视频s. One exhibition. While most museum exhibitions take months, even years, to plan and execute, these Art History seniors curated this show in a semester. This compression of time required them to work hard, work diligently and work together as unified group. Their effort, with guidance from the 久久热视频 Art Museum staff, has produced a showcase of thorough analysis and thoughtful organization regarding the overarching theme of photography as a document. Subjective Objectivity highlights these 久久热视频s’ ability to cultivate, distill, and share knowledge about the topic and individual artists as evident in their writing and curating. This year’s Art and Architecture History Capstone (ART498) delves into the complex way photographs can demonstrate the tension between objectivity and subjectivity. Subjective Objectivity documents their collective exploration of the documentary.
