Convention 22 1956

"Convention 22" is a contact sheet of photographs taken by Robert Frank in 1956. The contact sheet is a visual record of Frank's photographic process, showing individual frames from a roll of film. The black and white images capture various scenes from a political convention, likely the Democratic National Convention, featuring candid shots of delegates, speeches, and behind-the-scenes moments. This piece, part of Frank's renowned "The Americans" series, offers a glimpse into the artist's documentary style and his interest in capturing the complexities of American life.
