Annie Leibovitz’s Pilgrimage exhibit opens at the Concord Museum

As a followup to yesterday’s post about the wonderful conversation presented at Louisa May Alcott’s Orchard House by Annie Leibovitz and Doris Kearns Goodwin, here is a report by the MetroWest Daily News on the opening of the exhibit, beginning with a teaser:

Revealing a dramatic departure from her [Leibovitz’s] meticulously staged portraits, the photographs in “Pilgrimage’’ are celebratory, capturing singular details and moments that reveal her absent subjects in profound, moving and sometimes wacky ways.

A photo in Orchard House of three early 19th century dolls that belonged to the Alcott sisters conjures images of the rich imaginative life of the family headed by offbeat scholar Bronson Alcott. A glass container of stuffed birds in a house associated with poet Emily Dickinson suggests the hermetic nature of her verse. (written by Chris Bergeron/Daily News staff, MetroWest Daily News)
