Evan Mirapaul: Photography and the Violin
Evan Mirapaul discusses his collection of photographs of violins, featured in the museum’s exhibition Common Time: American Musicality. The pictures range from anonymous portraits of players to work by Arnold Newman, Louis Faurer and Justine Kurland, and show the instrument as a marker of class, identity and aspiration. Mirapaul, a Pittsburgh collector, played orchestral and chamber music professionally until 2004 and co-chaired the International Center of Photography’s Library Committee.
