Working with our partners at the Irish Arts Center, NYC, we invited people with Irish heritage to contribute to the Photo Album of the Irish archive. Contributors brought their album to the free scanning session where we made high quality digital scans.
Photo Album of the Irish – the tour continues
This touring exhibition emerges from an ongoing democratic archive that is a celebration of ordinary and extraordinary histories, viewed from the perspective of private individuals and families. From the earliest photographs taken in the 1850s to the advent of the digital era in the early 1990s, these images reveal details about how people lived, worked, and gathered that official historical records may have overlooked.
