The Mexican Suitcase offers the public an opportunity to experience images drawn from this famous collection of recovered negatives. In December 2007, three boxes filled with rolls of film, containing 4,500 35mm negatives of the Spanish Civil War by Robert Capa, Gerda Taro, and Chim (David Seymour)—which had been considered lost since 1939—arrived at the International Center of Photography. These three photographers, who lived in Paris, worked in Spain, and published internationally, laid the foundation for modern war photography. Their work has long been considered some of the most innovative and passionate coverage of the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939). Many of the contact sheets made from the negatives will be on view as part of the exhibition, which will look closely at some of the major stories by Capa, Taro, and Chim as interpreted through the individual frames. These images will be seen alongside the magazines of the period in which they were published and with the photographers’ own contact notebooks. The exhibition is organized by ICP assistant curator Cynthia Young.
On view at the ICP through January 9, 2011.

Barbara Kruger: On Site at Whitney Downtown
Barbara Kruger has designed the third Whitney site-specific installation at 820 Washington Street on the corner of Washington and Gansevoort Streets, producing a dramatic intervention that addresses the viewer with powerful and enigmatic textual statements while engaging with the social history of the site. Kruger’s installation elegantly and provocatively writes itself into the activity and history of the museum’s future downtown building.
