Continuing: Like reporters who hide behind their questions, photographers duck behind their lenses, snapping pictures of others but rarely revealing themselves. When they do, however, they're often as design-savvy as Judith Golden, whose multi-layered 1977 portrait is shown here. Note her eye peering through the hole torn in the glamour shot that serves as a mask. This clever show, drawn mostly from the Minneapolis Institute of Arts collection, includes about 65 portraits by and of photographers ranging from Ansel Adams and Diane Arbus to William Eggleston, Walker Evans, Lee Friedlander, André Kertész, Robert Mapplethorpe, Eadweard Muybridge, Cindy Sherman, Edward Steichen and Edward Weston. The show mixes 19th-century portraits with contemporary images, and lards in occasional snaps from passports, driver's licenses and local stars, including Stuart Klipper, JoAnn Verburg and Vance Gellert. Just for fun, you can join the show by uploading your self-portrait or images of other photographers onto the MIA's "Facing the Lens" group at www.flickr.com. The pix will be shown in the gallery and on the MIA's website.
