WSJ review of Robert Frank's "The Americans" at the National Gallery of Art

[Tuolumne]

The Wall Street Journal has a very enlightening review (subscription required) of this new exhibit that just opened at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC. The exhibit will be travelling to San Francisco and New York later this year. Call me a dummy, but I never realized that the famous photo of people looking out of a bus showed them seated sequentially in exact social status order. 😱:bang:😱
