Titled Oscar Rejlander: Artist Photographer, the exhibition explores the life and work of one of the most influential photographers of the 19th century. Paul Getty Museum is hosting the first major show dedicated to this pioneering artist. His bold experimentations with photographic techniques early in the development and his keen understanding of human emotion were far ahead of their time, changing the history of the medium. A painter, photographer and experimental artist, he managed to transform a technical medium into an important means of artistic expression. Known as the father of art photography, Oscar Rejlander remains one of its unsung heroes.
