Washington is awash with photography shows this month, starting at the National Gallery of Art (NGA), where a collection of portraits donated to the museum by the street photographer Robert Bergman are on view, many for the first time. “Robert Bergman: Portraits” includes 33 large-scale colour photographs of people Bergman met on the street in the 1980s. Also at the NGA is “In the Darkroom: Photographic Processes”, a show that traces the major technological developments in photography from early experiments by Henry Fox Talbot and the mass appeal of Polaroids to the highly manipulative medium of digital photography.
Over at the Phillips Collection is “Man Ray, African Art and the Modernist Lens”, which presents around 100 photographs by Man Ray and his contemporaries, such as Cecil Beaton, Walker Evans, and Alfred Stieglitz. Also on display are 20 African objects depicted in the images. H.S.
