Photography by no means played second fiddle to Charles Sheeler's work as a Precisionist painter. He was a true professional, earning his living from commissions (for Vanity Fair and Vogue, for example), and memorably recorded many disappearing aspects of American rural life as well as contemporary industrial architecture. This ambitious exhibition of more than 120 photographs (selected by Harvard University Art Museums curator Theodore E. Stebbins Jr. and French critic Gilles Mora) will surely confirm his reputation as a master of the medium, a standing that may even eclipse his renown as a painter. Oct. 23-Feb. 2; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, May 2003-Aug. 2003; Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Sept. 2003-Jan. 2004.
