Powerful documentary photography focuses our attention on the beauty of everyday life.
Viewfinder: Photography from the 1970s to Now takes a unique look at the journey of Australian documentary photography over the last five decades, from black and white images to the vibrant high definition images of today.
Drawing exclusively from the vast photography collection at the National Library of Australia, the 125 images in this exhibition reveal a changing Australia.
Images of what were traditionally quintessential Australian figures are present, but these characters and images are now part of a much bigger and far more inclusive picture.
Viewfinder also focusses on the evolving nature of photography as a way of recording our lives and highlights the significant technological advances and increasing diversity of styles, approaches and techniques utilised by photographers over the past five decades.
Just as your photo albums, whether physical or digital, tell your story, documentary photographers capture images that help us to understand a place and its people.
