La Frontera @ Museum of Contemporary Photography

This weekend the Museum of Contemporary Photography will open what looks like an exhibition of documentary photos from the border and above and hopefully below, featuring work from Michael Hyatt, Andy Kropa, Yoshua Okón, Heriberto Quiroz, Juan Pacheco, Antonio Perez, David Rochkind, Marcela Taboada and David Taylor. The MoCP has a team of great eyes, so it’ll be interesting to see what they brought out for this kind of content. See it today, Thursday, October 7th from 5-7PM @ Museum of Contemporary Photography, 600 S Michigan Ave.
