Project Gallery

A landscape with trees and mountains, featuring a large square photo of a silhouetted tree placed in the center, blending with the natural scenery behind it. Inspired by Mark Klett (American, b. 1952) and Byron Wolfe (American), from *Reconstructing the View*, this inkjet print—gift of the artists—seamlessly merges photographic elements with the picturesque environment.

Collection Gallery

People march outdoors in a pride parade, carrying rainbow flags and a large GEM Lambda Kodak banner. Participants wear casual clothes, and buildings and trees are visible in the background. Even before they formally acquired official recognition at Kodak, Lambda members met as a support group and participated in off-campus events such as this mid-1990s Pride Parade in Rochester, NY.

Still from Don't (Robin Lehman, 1974). George Eastman Museum. Gift of Robin Lehman. A traffic signal displays the word DONT in red letters. A butterfly is resting on the bottom edge of the sign, in a moment reminiscent of Robin Lehman’s evocative photography at the George Eastman Museum.

A vintage box camera with a worn, brown exterior sits on a white surface. The camera lens is visible on the front, and there is a metal handle on top. This piece is reminiscent of an 1887 Kodak camera (pre-production sample) made by the Eastman Dry Plate & Film Company (Rochester), reflecting early innovations in photographic history.
