In Focus: Sound
Now through September 2, 2022

“Photographs may be silent, but photographers have long conjured sound in their images. Whether depicting crowded urban spaces, musicians performing, or people engaged in conversation, the pictures in this exhibition prove photography’s power to communicate beyond the visual.

Drawn from the Getty’s permanent collection, In Focus: Sound, on view now through September 2, 2022, unites two sensory perceptions—sight and sound—in photographs that record the visual while also imitating the audible. ”
