Current Exhibitions
Twilight Visions: Surrealism, Photography, and Paris (January 29, 2019 - May 9, 2010)
Guest curator Terry Lichtenstein has assembled over 150 photographs, films, books, periodicals, and Surrealist ephemera to show how real and imaginary versions of Paris were constructed through photographic images.
Miroslav Tichý (January 29, 2019 - May 9, 2010)
This is the first American museum exhibition devoted to the work of the reclusive and mysterious Czech photographer Miroslav Tichý. Now over eighty years old, Tichý is a stubbornly eccentric artist, known as much for his makeshift cardboard cameras as for his haunting and distorted images of women and landscapes, many of them taken surreptitiously.
Alan B. Stone and the Senses of Place (January 29, 2019 - May 9, 2010)
This intimate exhibition explores photography, memory and some of the meanings associated with "place." Guest curator and native Montrealer, David Deitcher, presents approximately 60 black-and-white photographs by the little-known, Montreal-based photographer, Alan B. Stone (1928–1992).
Atget, Archivist of Paris (January 29, 2019 - May 9, 2010)
This exhibition presents 26 vintage prints by the celebrated French photographer Eugène Atget (1857–1927) drawn from the ICP permanent collection. As this exhibition reveals, such photographs were part of a much larger body of work that reflected Atget's systematic documentation of the historic streets, buildings, and artifacts of Old Paris.
