By tradition and by design, the museum is an institution attuned to the historica
and aesthetic dimensions of the objects it places on view. Within the art museum s
repertory, photographs have a firmly established place, both as important documents
of times past and as finely crafted pictures. This exhibition, though it brings together
works spanning 150 years, does not rehearse a history of major moments, move-
ments, or masterpieces in photography. Notwithstanding the historical and visual
interest of the images in Making Light, and their relevance in that hybrid phenomenon
the social history of art, they have been brought together in service of a sectional
(rather than chronological) view of photography, centered upon a rhetorical (rather
than aesthetic) characteristic that unites them. Namely, they are liable to make you
crack up.
