Rarities

July 17, 2009 Bill Gatesman Uncategorized

Rarities is an exhibition of photographs at the Corkin Gallery in Toronto running until June 30, 2009.  I found this understated, small show to be one of the most satisfying museum exhibitions of photography I have ever experienced.

Included among the 7 or so photographs are Alfred Steiglitz’s famous 1907 photogravure, The Steerage, and a wonderful large brown pigment gum bichromate print by one of the acknowledged masters of the gum printing process, Heinrich Kuhn, his 1905 Landscape — Peasant with Cart.

Also featured in the show are Eugene Atget and Ansel Adams.
