DEEDS CALENDAR: Dorothea Lange – Seeing People – National Gallery of Art Landover (Maryland / USA) | until 31.03.2024
Dorothea Lange: Seeing People explores how Lange’s portraits have shaped our understanding of documentary photography today and what significance they had for her vision and creative practice. Divided into six thematic sections, the exhibition features portraits ranging from her early career as a studio photographer in San Francisco – the earliest work dates from 1919 – to her powerful coverage of the Great Depression and expressive photographs of everyday people and communities in the 1950s and early 1960s.
