Music

• The Theory by Clem Leek

• Hiddensee by Caeys

• The Clock Tower by Hampshire and Foat

Notes

• If you want to know more about Gardner, I’d suggest Witness to an Era: the Life and Photographs of Alexander Gardner, by Mark Katz.

• On Brady, Matthew Brady: Portraits of a Nation, by Robert Wilson.

• I’d also suggest reading the New York Times’ review of the exhibit. It’s pretty stunning.
