Summary:
From its beginnings in the 1840s, one of the earliest uses of photography was to use the camera to record and distribute images of exotic countries or locales. These photographs provided a glimpse of the world to a curious public, few of whom could ever hope to visit those places in person. In addition to such obvious photographic destinations as the temples and monuments of Egypt, Greece, and Italy were added the mysterious and exotic attractions of India. In "Reverie and Reality", a visual history of India in the 19th century unfolds. Images by some of the earliest and most significant practitioners of the medium will be on view in this exhibition, including Linnaeus Tripe, Samuel Bourne, John Murray, and the Indian Lala Din Dayal. The subject matter ranges from famous architectural monuments to images of the natural landscape. The variety of humanity that inhabited this country during the time period is recorded in a series of photographs that range from scenes of daily life in villages to sumptuous and formal visits of foreign royalty. Essays accompany the lavish illustrations in this catalogue to the exhibition drawing on images from the Ehrenfeld Collection.

Summary:
The Getty presents "Where We Live: Photographs from the Berman Collection", at the J. Paul Getty Museum, the Getty Center, October 24, 2006-February 25, 2007. The exhibition showcases the richness of American color photography in nearly 170 works by 24 important contemporary artists, and includes works that will be shown for the first time. "Where We Live" draws from nearly 500 examples of postwar American photography donated by the Bermans to the Museum over the past eight years. The photographs that the Bermans have donated to the Getty form an archive of late 20th-century American life. The presentation marks the opening of the Getty Museum's new and expanded suite of galleries devoted to photographs, reflecting the importance of the art form in the Getty's collection.
