Opening this Thursday, February 20, the David Owsley Museum of Art presents People and Places 1873-2000: A Selection of Photographs from DOMA's Collection. This special exhibition features images from the history of photography chosen by guest curator Ronn Brown. Born in Portland, Indiana, Brown followed a career path as a photographer for the television and film industry to Hollywood, California. His selections include photographs by John Coplans, Imogen Cunningham, Philippe Halsman, Lotte Jacobi, and Margaret Bourke-White.
Join us at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday for an evening opening reception with music, refreshments, and a gallery talk with Ronn Brown. At 4:00 p.m. that same day, DOMA director Robert La France and Brown will give a tour of the exhibition for faculty and educators interested in exploring ways to incorporate the show into classes. Both events are free with no registration required.
