John Albok

Start date: Saturday, October 18, 2008
Event is ongoing: Until Saturday, November 15, 2008

This fall PDNB Gallery will present a solo show for John Albok (1894 - 1982). The exhibition will be a survey of his career in photography spanning seventy years. Curators for this important, comprehensive exhibition are the daughter of John Albok, Ilona Albok Vitarius, and Gallery Director, Burt Finger.

Both dug deep into the artist's archive to explore photographs that have not been exhibited before. Scenes of the 1939 New York World's Fair, the streets of New York during the Great Depression, and WWII marches and parades are just some of the themes that this multi-faceted artist has covered.

Major museums throughout the country have collected John Albok's photographs including the Getty Museum, the Metropolitan Museum, the Brooklyn Art Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Dallas Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and the Amon Carter Museum.

Sorry, this event ended on Saturday, November 15, 2008.
