    Re/frame: Reflective Photographs from the Collection

    As we consider the exploration of photographic processes found within the exhibition Carrie Yamaoka: recto/verso, please join us to view and discuss a selection of daguerreotypes, tintypes, and even an opalotype from the Henry’s collection. We’ll have a chance to reflect on these images, on who they represent and who they don’t, and on the science and artistry that forever changed how we capture the world around us.
    Re/frame is a recurring program that delves into the Henry's extensive collection, highlighting a different group of objects each month. Join us for group discussions and the opportunity to see art rarely on public view.
