KRISTINE POTTER AT THE HIGH MUSEUM OF ART

Kristine Potter is showing  work in Truth Told Slant: Contemporary Photography on view at the High Museum of Art from March 1 to August 11, 2024.

Truth Told Slant examines a recent shift in how photographers have taken on the challenge of making meaningful images of the world around them. Rather than using the traditional documentary approach of dispassionate observation, they work in a stylistically expressive manner akin to literary nonfiction, weaving between observational and narrative modes while embracing their own subjectivity.
