Walker Evans’
eye on America
The careworn faces of a
tenant farmer’s family
in the rural South, an
auto graveyard in the
Pennsylvania hills, and
other Depression-era
images are hallmarks of
the late Walker Evans’
powerhouse portfolio.
But the photographer’s
career spanned more
than four decades after
those iconic images
were taken. “The
Exacting Eye of Walker
Evans,” the first exhibit
to examine the entire
breadth of his career,
is on view at the Florence Griswold Museum
in Old Lyme, Conn.,
through Jan. 29.
Walker Evans,
