Where to Go and What to See
This week, gallery-goers should head out to Rochester, NY for a recreation of the significant 1975 exhibition, New Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape. Showing once again at the George Eastman House, the selection includes more than 100 photographs from the original show from photographers such as Robert Adams, Bernd and Hilla Becher, Frank Gohlke, Henry Wessel Jr., and John Schott (who took the above picture). New Topographics was revolutionary because it demonstrated a new way of photographing landscapes, marrying documentation with fine art aesthetics, and its influence is still felt today. The exhibit opens on June 13 and runs through September 27, after which it will tour the US and Europe.

How is it Texas does not seem to have any events in "Where to go and What to see "?
Just wondering?

I really wish this exhibition was coming to a city in the midwest. The evolution of the landscape is to want landscapes currently are. I think it is important to focus on landscapes that aren't just nature.

This is a great time of the year for Fall Foliage Photography in New York also.
Watkins Glenn looks like a great park to explore for Fall Foliage Photography.
