Cornell Capa chose the phrase "concerned photographer" to describe those photographers who demonstrated in their work a humanitarian impulse to use pictures to change the world, not just to record it. This exhibition will look at pioneering stories through vintage photographs, magazine spreads, and contact sheets, and will serve as a tribute to Mr. Capa
