Focus Gallery: Hannah Altman: Not a Circle but a Spiral

1 upcoming performance in New York

At the Jewish Museum in New York, this Focus Gallery presentation centers on Hannah Altman’s photographic practice and her approach to memory as something revised over time. The exhibition traces how family stories, ritual, and inherited images can be reassembled into new narratives, where repetition does not circle back so much as accumulate. As a gallery installation in the city’s museum landscape, it adds to an ongoing New York conversation about diaspora, archives, and who gets to author them. Altman’s work stays precise, though its symbolism can occasionally press a point too firmly.
