Beginning November 1, explore the work of this groundbreaking photographer in Storyteller: The Photographs of Duane Michals. And don't miss the rare opportunity for a unique look at the world of art through the eyes of this acclaimed photographer and eclectic collector in Duane Michals: Collector.

Born in 1932 and raised near Pittsburgh in a steelworker family, Duane Michals has been a pioneer since the 1960s when he broke away from established traditions of documentary and fine art photography. Rather than respecting the primacy of the photographic print, Michals added handwritten messages and poems to the paper surface. Instead of accepting the dominance of a powerful single image, he created sequences of images to convey visual stories. He has always considered himself a storyteller.
