One camera, one viewfinder: photography is often understood as a solitary practice. Throughout the medium’s history, however, artists have challenged the notion of one-person authorship. These photographs from the Morgan’s collection emerged from distinct forms of collaborative production, and each one of them encourages us to reconsider the common assumption that photographs reflect a single moment captured by an individual.
