Representations of Christ in Photography

  • Date iconMay 22 2003 - October 18 2003
  • Curator(s): Nissan Perez
  • Photography
Though a relatively young art form, photography has continued the enduring tradition in Western art of depicting images of Jesus and Christianity. Through a selection of nearly 150 photographs spanning the entire history of the medium, this exhibition examined the techniques and perspectives of photographers - from early camera practitioners to contemporary artists and the influence of other art forms on their photographic depictions of Christianity. This exhibition was the first comprehensive survey devoted exclusively to this subject and was accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue.
