From the press release:
I.C. Rapoport’s photography reminds us of how crucial photojournalism was during a century of immeasurable change and uncertainty.
Rapoport’s lens has captured the anxiety, the expectation and most importantly, the beauty of his generation’s relationship with the photograph. There is a frankness to photojournalism that seems fresh and unadulterated – these images are incredibly intimate.
Rapoport represents one of the last voices from his era. His work stands as a testament to an honesty that we recognize, in an era of digital alteration, as becoming increasingly important and increasingly rare.
Tuesday through Saturday: 1 - 6PM
