As one of the first female photographers of the early 20th century, Imogen Cunningham enjoys a special position in the history of photography. Many of her works spanning seven decades will be on view in Imogen Cunningham: A Retrospective at the Getty Center in Los Angeles from March 8 to June 12, 2022. The exhibition is a continuation of the first major retrospective in the United States in more than 35 years, whose first stop was the Seattle Art Museum.
Imogen Cunningham's (1883-1976) work ranges from the widespread pictorial style of the 1930s to straight photography to experimental photography, which includes such works as her light abstractions. In 1932, Cunningham co-founded the influential f/64 group, which was dedicated to straight photography. These works were influenced by the New Objectivity and consciously opposed the symbolically influenced pictorialism.
