Together, Apart, Away:

Snapshots from the Peter J. Cohen Collection

Family road trips. Budding friendships. Sibling rivalries. These are just some of the human moments captured by everyday photographers in snapshots from the collection of Peter J. Cohen. Individually, each snapshot welcomes you into a recognizable world. As a whole, they tell a story about how we tell our stories. Get ready for a moving, nostalgic, and hopeful exhibition opening Thursday, May 7 in conversation with Danny Lyon: The Bikeriders.

About the exhibition: More than 450 snapshots from the collection of Peter J. Cohen weave together everyday moments into a beautiful portrait of our shared humanity.

A snapshot is a photograph shot by a non-professional -- everyday folks like parents, siblings, and friends. You will likely see yourself reflected in the snapshots on view in Together, Apart, and Away. They might remind you of saying "cheese" with your brother on a road trip as your mom snapped photos for family albums or making bunny ears in a snap with a friend on the last day of summer camp.

See how photography asserts both our individuality and networks of belonging. Experience the expressiveness of photography. Connect with what makes us human.
