Imogen Cunningham, Mills College Art Gallery, 1925, (Slide copy) Gelatin Silver Print

A photographic print and slide projection installation of recent and historic images taken in and around the Mills College Art Museum. Illuminating a hidden facet of the museum architecture, which has been covered over by the expansion of the art department, the tower window.

Slides pulled from the museum archive show the tower, as photographed by Imogen Cunningham in 1925 (shorty after the buildings completion). These are paired with contemporary photographs taken in the tower by Graduate Student Alex Hamilton in 2017.
