About the Exhibitions
Selections from ICP at 50: From the Collection is a thematic exploration of the many photographic processes that comprise the medium’s history, presenting works from ICP’s deep holdings of photography collected over 50 years since ICP was established in 1974. The exhibition includes work from the 19th century to the present, featuring photographs by well-known artists that ICP has in depth holdings of—such as Robert Capa, Weegee, and Gerda Taro among many others—as well as vernacular works and recent acquisitions including images by Nona Faustine.
Yto Barrada: Part-Time Abstractionist celebrates 10 years of Barrada's investigations in abstraction in photography and film, including new work exploring the space of the darkroom. These modes of working are consistent throughout Barrada’s work and offer an insight into the ways she examines the social, political, and industrial structures that have and continue to shape society.
