Too bad the exhibit was all the way in a back corner mezzanine of the museum, and I got more lost than usual trying to find it. Considering the subject, I expected something grander. What was missing here was visual representations of the historical and cultural context of the photographs.
On a positive note, I enjoyed seeing the glass negatives from the 20th century, and the photographs of the mixed race families in Saint-Louis, Senegal. In and Out of The Studio runs until January 3rd.
