MODERN PHOTOGRAPHY IS FEATURED AT MUSEUM

In the current exhibition which opened at the Germanic Museum this week, Germany, France, Mexico, and the United States are represented in modern photography, which ranges in subject from the abstractions of Man-Ray to the factory workers of Maurice Bratter.

As in most modern art photography is approached from a number of different angles, pictorial, aesthetic, technical, and imaginative. Interesting studies in light and shadow coupled with subtle abstractions put some of the pictures in the class with real paintings, as many of the photographers are experienced painters.

Photographic portraits, a thing never attempted before with much success have been raised to a new standard under the camera of such men and women as Doris Ulmann or Herman Lerski of Germany.
