After the isolated beginnings of a market in the early 20th century, photography emerged as a respected and collectible medium in the 1970s--driven by the viability of commercial photography galleries, increasing auction sales, and the establishment or promotion of autonomous curatorial departments in museums such as the Art Institute of Chicago (where photography became a separate department in 1974). Longtime Art Institute supporter Robert A. Taub's wide-ranging collection charts photography's changing and innovative role as a market force in the 1970s and 1980s. When Collecting Was New: Photographs from the Robert A. Taub Collection, on view at the Art Institute through May 12, 2013 in Galleries 1-4, presents over 100 works from Mr. Taub's collection and is complemented by loans from private collectors and works from the museum's permanent collection. This fresh presentation of classic and overlooked material includes a wall with no fewer than seven different prints of Dorothea Lange's iconic Migrant Mother (1936); a gridlike, historically accurate installation of Garry Winogrand's masterpiece portfolio, Women Are Beautiful (1974); and never-before-seen photographs by Joel Sternfeld taken in the later 1970s at the Ford Motor Company.
