I am incredibly sad that I didn’t find out about this until now – long after the show has ended – but Ampersand, a gallery, bookshop, and retail archive in Portland ran a fantastic exhibition of 1930’s morgue photographs last year. Luckily, their website still has copies of the photos for our voyeuristic benefit (and you can purchase prints if you’re incredibly rich). Behold!
Dead Silence
Thanks to Carson for the link.
There were also some other really cool art on this website. Check out the pictures on refridgerator contents.
I kind of wish there was information accompanying the photos. Like cause of death and age of deceased.
