Photography: Selections from the Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation

Since its earliest inception in the 19th century, photography has been a tool to document the world and capture a true likeness of reality. In the early 20th century, painting and photography were regarded as vastly different art forms, with photography seen as a “mechanical” process that had little to do with fine art. Over the course of the 20th century, photography has opened up to many different techniques, but the documentary impulse remains strong for many artists.
