Science and Motion Exhibit from Bruce Museum

The Bruce Museum couldn’t be happier about its new exhibit and wants to show it off to everybody. The new exhibit is titled, Science and Motion: The Photographic Studies of Edward Muybridge, Harold Edgerton, and Berenice Abbott. This exhibition of approximately 40 photographs offers a rich and extensive view of the scientific studies done by three of photography’s greats—Muybridge, Edgerton, and Abbott. Each of these artists invented devices to scientifically and photographically study and represent aspects of light and motion. Their works not only clearly and elegantly reveal scientific phenomena, but also are evidence of their individualized artistic sensibilities. These photographs are therefore not only scientific studies but art unto themselves. The exhibit runs through Oct. 16.
