Harold
Cazneaux Photographs
- An Exhibition
This absorbing exhibition presents a stunning
selection from the National Library's substantial
holdings of the work of Pictorial photographer
Harold Cazneaux. It forces a major reassessment
of the importance of this highly individual
twentieth-century photographer. His break from
the constrained formalism of studio photography,
along with his joyful use of light, produced a
body of influential and enduring images of
Australian life and scenes.
The exhibition is a
collaborative venture with the Historic Houses Trust of NSW, and was curated by one of the Trust's curators,
Sally Webster. As well as
being displayed at the National Library of
Australia in Canberra, the exhibition toured in
1995-1996 - visiting the Waverley City Gallery
(Melbourne), Newcastle Regional Art Gallery,
Logan City Art Gallery, Dubbo Regional Gallery,
and Orange Regional Gallery.
