Last year, Hurricane Sandy has left pain and destruction in our midst. But New York has risen from the ashes to rebuild and there are plans now for an exhibition in the Museum of the City of New York that is said to rival the storm itself. There were over 10,000 images that were submitted by more than 900 photographers, some of which have been personally affected by the storm.
Museum curators chose more than 200 color and black and white photographs that documented the storm and the debris and devastation that it left behind. This show opens on Tuesday October 29th and runs through February 10th. People will leave this exhibit with some kind of emotional response and these photos will shock and amaze the viewers. Susan Henshaw Jones, the city museum’s director, said that this exhibit will hopefully spark conversations about how to better prepare our city for future storms.
