Join Lisa Volpe, Curator of Photography at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, for a discussion of the photographic projects that Frank and Webb created during travels through the United States in 1955.

Organized by the Museum of Fine Art, Houston, this exhibition presents photographs that Robert Frank and Todd Webb created separately during their 1955 Guggenheim Foundation Fellowships. Though the men had no knowledge of each other at the time, their strikingly similar images revealed popular cultural trends and shared ideologies that challenged the idealistic purity of the “American Roadtrip.”
