International Photography Hall of Fame and Museum

The Photography Hall of Fame and Museum relocated to St. Louis, Missouri in 2013 and no longer resides at the Science Museum.

This gallery was formerly a tribute to the art and technology of photography. It was home to the world's largest "photo-mural", a laserscape of the Grand Canyon.

Famous quotes containing the words photography, hall, fame and/or museum:

    Too many photographers try too hard. They try to lift photography into the realm of Art, because they have an inferiority complex about their Craft. You and I would see more interesting photography if they would stop worrying, and instead, apply horse-sense to the problem of recording the look and feel of their own era.
    Jessie Tarbox Beals (1870–1942)

    I may be able to spot arrowheads on the desert but a refrigerator is a jungle in which I am easily lost. My wife, however, will unerringly point out that the cheese or the leftover roast is hiding right in front of my eyes. Hundreds of such experiences convince me that men and women often inhabit quite different visual worlds. These are differences which cannot be attributed to variations in visual acuity. Man and women simply have learned to use their eyes in very different ways.
    —Edward T. Hall (b. 1914)

    The best people renounce all for one goal, the eternal fame of mortals; but most people stuff themselves like cattle.
    Heraclitus (c. 535–475 B.C.)

    A Museum of fetishes would give special attention to the history of underwear.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
