Aperture at 50.

October 24, 2002 11:14 AM

Aperture at 50. The great photography magazine Aperture, founded by giants Ansel Adams, Dorothea Lange, Barbara Morgan, and Minor White, is turning fifty years old. The cool part? To celebrate, they're holding fifty simultaneous exhibitions around New York City (PDF Map here). This is pretty fantastic for any photophile in the Northeast (or with enough cash, time, and desire to come to New York). I personally am going to try to see as many as I can.

Somewhat related, if only by equipment, I find Blind Spot to be remarkable.

This would make for an amazing few days in the city. For newer photographers I would highly reccommend Alex Webb, Joel Sternfeld, Eugene Richards and Sally Mann.
