The Modern Impulse showcases more than 135 photographs, books, illustrated magazines, and films drawn from four regions that were among the era’s most prominent centers of photographic innovation—France and the Czech Republic in Europe, and New York and California in the United States. Artists featured in The Modern Impulse include such innovative talents as Berenice Abbott, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Imogen Cunningham, František Drtikol, Walker Evans, André Kertész, Helen Levitt, Josef Sudek, and Jaroslav Rössler.

“Photographers from both sides of the Atlantic caught the fleeting moments of everyday life, focusing on cities, street life, and the contours of industrial and natural forms. Their work ranged from abstraction to realism and was influenced by artistic movements such as Surrealism, Constructivism, and New Objectivity along with creative approaches to documentary and reportage,” said exhibition curator Kerry Oliver-Smith, curator of contemporary art at the Harn Museum of Art. “Broadly, the work reflects what artist and theorist László Moholy-Nagy (1895–1946) described as a ‘new vision,’ a perspective that emerged from the technical culture of the 20th century, incorporating a multitude of unconventional forms and techniques such as unusual cropping and camera angles, high contrast and photomontage in both experimental and straight photography.”
“The Modern Impulse offers a window into one of the most artistically fertile periods in the history of photography,” said Rebecca Nagy, director of the Harn Museum of Art. “We’re delighted to share a remarkable exhibition that meaningfully contributes to a greater understanding of 20th century visual culture.”

The works displayed in the exhibition are organized by the following five thematic areas, which reflect the diversity of production and expression under the “new vision” movement: Art and Technology: New Vision and the Modern City; Pure Photography and New Objectivity; Dreams, Memory, and Desire: Surrealism in France and the Czech Republic; Social Activism and Modern Life: Documentary and Reportage; and Mass Media: Photography for the Public.
A lecture series will be offered in conjunction with the exhibition. Ontology of the Image will feature lectures by John Mullarkey, Professor of Film and Television at Kingston University in the United Kingdon, and Ariella Azoulay, Leverhulme Research Professor at Durham University and Director of the Photo-Lexic International Research Group at the Minerva Center, Tel Aviv University.
