Drive-by Shooting: Photographs by Robert Frank

May 6, 2009—November 16, 2009

After emigrating from Switzerland in 1947, Robert Frank (b. 1924) documented his travels throughout the United States. With a camera and old car, Frank began a solitary road trip shooting photos that span from coast to coast.  His black and white photographs of ordinary objects and city scenes encapsulate a sense of loneliness and banality, reflecting Frank's personal experience with American life and landscape.  This display of 14 works features examples from The Americans, Frank's most celebrated body of work.
