In the New Orleans Museum of Art's new exhibition You Are Here, the concept of "place" in photography is explored threefold. In experiencing the captured imagery of photography, you are here, where you physically are—taking it in; you are here, in the place the image represents, in your engaged imagination; and you are here, standing from the viewpoint of the camera—in the place where the photo was created. You Are Here takes a look at the vital ways photography has served as a faithful record of place, as well as the ways in which it has failed to do so, or has served as a stand in for the singular, experiential, and fixed nature of actual place.

Photographs included range form some of the earliest salted paper prints of Jerusalem to present day digitally manipulated imagery, adding in the exploratory layer of photography's evolution in society. Works featured include photos by Lola Alvarez-Bravo, Anna Atkins, Eugene Atget, John Divola, Peter Henry Emerson, Gordon Parks, Edward Steichen, Carrie Mae Weems, and more.

On display from April 26–July 28. Learn more at noma.org.
