Armin Limke (his photograph of site workers praying at the Ghazi Barotha hydoelectric scheme in Pakistan is above) is one of more than 50 photographers represented in Public Works, the new exhibit at the Museum of Contemporary Photography. "Public Works examines geographically and chronologically diverse examples of built infrastructure captured through the lenses of mid-20th century to contemporary artists," says curator Natasha Egan. "Generally regarded as profoundly boring, infrastructure, we see through this work, has complex political, economic, and social dimensions." Egan gives a tour of the exhibit Wednesday, May 4 at 12:30 p.m.
