On the eve of the 15th annual Lincoln Center Festival, The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts will open Lincoln Center Festival in Pictures, a retrospective photography exhibition that highlights the Festival’s artists and productions over the past 14 years. All the photographs in the exhibition were taken by Stephanie Berger, who has served as the staff photographer for Lincoln Center Festival since its inception in 1996. The photographs capture some of the most memorable and eclectic productions presented by the Festival. Lincoln Center Festival in Pictures also portrays some of the incredible individuals that have participated in the Festival over the years, including Liam Neeson, Harold Pinter, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Ornette Coleman, and Merce Cunningham. Lincoln Center Festival in Pictures will be on display from July 6 through August 14 in the Plaza corridor gallery of The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, located at 40 Lincoln Center Plaza. The gallery is open Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday until 6 pm; Monday and Thursday until 8 pm; and closed Sundays. Admission is free to the public.
