Summary
Another London reviews a survey of international photographers at Tate Britain.
It is an enthralling and unexpected selection, and the anthology resonates beyond this showing. It is from the Eric and Louise Franck collection, which has been donated to the Tate, and is part of the process by which the gallery has very belatedly, but with almost overwhelming enthusiasm, entered into collecting and showing photography as a medium in in its own right, with a very active patrons group supporting acquisitions. One of the benefits of Tate joining the fray is evident in the installation of this show, roughly chronological, and rhythmically paced throughout its seven sections, with images shown in clusters, and individual photographers in depth. Vitrines show a number of books with images from settlers, by such as the American Alvin Langdon Coburn, the German EO Hoppe, and passersby, (usually on the way to America), such as the Hungarian Moholy-Nagy.
