"Pictorialism in Pittsburgh" Preview

|

The Pittsburg Post-Gazette has a preview of "Pictorialism in Pittsburgh" at Silver Eye Center for Photography.

Pittsburgh is home to the oldest continuing Pictorialist society, the Photographic Section of The Academy of Science and Art, which started in 1885. The group meets in Mt. Lebanon and has joined the Silver Eye Center for Photography, South Side, to present a rare exhibition of a selection of its archival and current photos, "Pictorialism in Pittsburgh."

Some interesting history on photo competitions amongst some pretty striking photos by unknown Pittsburghers, too.
