Two photographs from the AMAM collection depict the Pittsburgh steel industry in the early 20th century: one shows workers the size of ants soaring on the girders of a new steel plant, the other frames workers at a nearby plant standing shoulder to shoulder in front of their boarding house. Taken within 10 miles of each other and 30 years apart, these photographs demonstrate two views of industry and two approaches to documentary. In this Tuesday Tea, Lucy Haskell, curatorial assistant in the Office of Academic Programs, explores how a collection of American documentary photographs holds both personal experiences and larger social narratives.
This event will take place in-person in the East Gallery.
