Energy to Spare: '50s Photographs by Grace RobertsonTuesday, May 1, 2018 - Sunday, August 26, 2018

This exhibition presented a dozen delightful works by the pioneering photographer Grace Robertson who was born in Manchester, England. Throughout her career, Robertson acted as a pioneer with much the same energy as characterized the women she photographed. She created spontaneous, timeless images that offer rare glimpses of the human spirit, often with great humor and character. Her well-composed photographs balance aesthetics and documentation and demonstrate both a classic, fine art approach to the medium and a genuine interest in the lives of real people.

This exhibition was generously supported by the Hoene Hoy Photography Fund.
