In 2009, Bard Professor of Art History Tom Wolf curated an exhibition at the Dorsky, Eva Watson-Schütze: Photographer, drawing from the Museum’s large holdings of work by the artist. As the selection shown here demonstrates, Watson-Schütze’s romantic portraits were often of children, or affectionate pairings emphasizing communication between parent and child.
