When the camera's first image came out: 'The world's first'
A new digital museum dedicated to photography will open on the Gold Coast this week with a new exhibition focusing on the photographer who created it.
The exhibition will include over 250 photographs of the artist, including some from his studio.
The artist was born Robert F. Halsey in 1877 in the city of Chicago, Illinois.
Halsey's first book was a photograph of the city in 1874, which was published as the Chicago Tribune in 1875.
The artist later had the idea of using his own life story to show the city and its people in an entirely new way.
The exhibition will feature over 250 portraits of the photographer taken in Chicago between 1874 and 1893, including the Chicago Exposition in 1893 and the Chicago World's Fair in 1893.
It's the first exhibition to focus on the work of the man behind the famous camera, who was born in Chicago in 1876.
Haldane's work, called "The Photographer", has been viewed by over 300 million people worldwide and has sold more than 15 million copies.
"The photographer was an extraordinary figure, and a powerful influence on our time, and it is a privilege to see him reflected in our new exhibition," said curator of photography and documentary art and film and director of the photography museum.
He said the exhibition would be an "accommodating" addition to the exhibition.
"He had a very particular vision of what a photographer should look like, and how it should look and how to shoot it," Haldane said.
I am a very privileged person to be able to work with him.
Haldanes first book, "The Chicago Expositor", was published in 1871 and was about his time in Chicago.
His second book, called The Chicago Photographer, was published three years later.
In the exhibition, a selection of his work will be displayed alongside the photographs and the accompanying documentary.
The exhibit will include a number of Haldanes original works, including portraits of his family and friends and a number taken in his own studio.
One of the most famous of his photographs, a scene from a photograph taken by his father, Robert Haldanys, was taken during the 1893 Chicago Expo.
The Haldans were the first to film the city, and many people would come to the city for the fair to see what was happening.
The new exhibition, "Haldanies Chicago: The Photographer", will open at the Art Gallery of Chicago on Friday and run until April 25.
Tickets for the show are $12, and they are available at the exhibition's website.
