Walker Evans’ radical photography of the 1930s demonstrated that unembellished photographic fact could serve as a highly poetic language. Walker Evans & Company focuses on Evans as a central figure in the arts of the 1920s and 30s, and includes works in photography and other mediums that influenced Evans or were influenced by him, or which resonate in a significant way with aspects of his imagery, sensibility, and style.
