    Photography accelerated to film, and porn was the result. And yet photographs never capture the griminess that Manet applied with a paintbrush: photographs are clean, even when they’re dirty.

    The 40 images on show here include the work of Robert Mapplethorpe, as well as Man Ray, Manuel Alvarez Bravo, Nadav Kander, Annie Leibovitz, Helmut Newton and Bettina Rheims.
