William Henry Fox Talbot (British, 1800–1877), Orléans Cathedral, detail, 1843, calotype. Bank of America Collection
Join Brian Piper, PhD, Freeman Family Curator of Photographs, New Orleans Museum of Art, for a talk on the presentation of Moment in Time.
What can a photograph tell us about the moment in time that it was made? As we gather single photographs into a larger group, what can that separate action—assembling a collection of photographs—tell us about the history of photography itself? Join Brian Piper, PhD, Freeman Family Curator of Photographs, New Orleans Museum of Art, for a talk on the presentation of Moment in Time. Piper will highlight works from the exhibition, with attention to both their making and our contemporary understanding, while drawing connections between artists and across time.
