Photo Show
- There's an excellent photography exhibition showing at the Shanghai Art Museum. Cartier-Bresson, Doisneau, Kertesz, and more. It's great seeing the originals but, for the most part, it doesn't strike me as so much better than seeing high-quality reproductions of them, unlike sculpture or painting. The exception is Ansel Adams, whose prints are so technically magnificent that reproductions don't do them justice.
Anyhow, this young woman was quite struck by the William Klein photo of a smoking woman in a veil. I hope she doesn't want to emulate her -- there are enough smokers in China.
