Joyce Tenneson’s The View Project, an exhibition of works by more than 50 international photographers, is an extraordinary show that raises more questions than it answers. Tenneson asked colleagues to send her images of places that “speak to our heart in an unforgettable manner.” Then she requested that the photographers write a statement describing exactly what makes these particular images – and places – memorable to them. See for yourself if you agree with their explanations about the power of these photographs, or perhaps reach your own conclusion. Tenneson previously delighted museum-goers with her exhibitions Wise Women and Amazing Men.
