Exhibition catalogue for Glenbow Museum (February 25 - April 8, 1982), Southern Alberta Art Gallery (April 24 - May 31, 1982) and Edmonton Art Gallery (June 11 - August 1, 1982). "This exhibition focuses on the work of the American photographer Berenice Abbott. Organized by Nancy Tousley, Associate Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Glenbow Museum, it includes twelve portraits taken in Paris in the 1920s, and forty-eight views of New York made in the 1930s. As a group, the photographs reveal Abbott's abiding interest in creating images of unadorned reality. Devoid of sentimentality or impressionistic effects, Abbott's photographs are simply factual records of what the camera's eye sees.".
