A new exhibition at the DeCordova Sculpture Park and Museum in Lincoln, Massachusetts, explores the history of social photography through a selection of images from the institution’s permanent collection. Spanning from the mid-twentieth century to the present, “The Social Medium” touches on a number of photographic genres, including social documentary as well as street, celebrity, and portrait photography.

The exhibition at the DeCordova explores how developments in photographic technology -- from the invention of the portable film camera to the rise in popularity of Polaroid cameras, digital cameras, and cellphone cameras -- have influenced the art of social documentation.
