The California Museum of Photography, located at the University of California Riverside has some of the best exhibitions of photography in the country. ON-SITE is an incredibly interesting photographic exhibition, and could be one of the best in the US this year.
Generally, when people are located in public spaces, they have no expectation of privacy, so the photographer doesn’t violate their right of privacy when taking their photo in a public space.
After the photo is taken, new concerns of privacy come into play, and one’s person right of publicity. For example, generally, a photographer violates a person’s right of publicity when, without permission, the photographer uses a photo of a person for the photographer’s own benefit, sometimes referred to as “commercial” use as opposed to an “editorial” use. Like many concepts in law, this one isn’t precisely straightforward.
The National Gallery of Art has an extensive collection of photographic images, however, most are not regularly on display. This exhibition, Beat Memories: The Photographs of Allen Ginsberg, takes 79 photographs from Allen Ginsberg’s collection snapshots and professional portraits. It will be treat to see them.

The Museum of Modern Art (MOMA), in New York, NY has some of the most amazing exhibitions of contemporary photography in the US.
