Organized by the Museum of Fine Art, Houston, this exhibition presents photographs that Robert Frank and Todd Webb created separately during their 1955 Guggenheim Foundation Fellowships.

This installation explores the spirit of formal experimentation and range of artistic styles that characterized the 20th century.
