Tintype

Exhibition on view July 11-August 7 at University City Public Library
The project utilized a photographic art tool from the past—the tintype—to bring together people of the present. Earlier in 2015, Berger held several public events where citizens were able to tell their stories about University City and have their picture taken with a tintype camera. These pictures and stories were featured in exhibitions, through the mail, and on the project website. Through this process, Berger hoped that “we can begin to recognize the gold of University City, its’ citizens.”
