NEW YORK CITY — The Metropolitan Museum of Art presents the exhibition “Hidden in Plain Sight: Contemporary Photographs from the Collection,” on view through September 3.

This exhibition brings together the work of 14 contemporary artists who use the camera to call attention to the poetic richness latent in ordinary things. Often deliberately understated in style, these photographs are filled with everyday epiphanies.

The exhibition features approximately 35 works by various artists, including Gabriel Orozco, Walker Evans, Stephen Shore, Rachel Harrison, Jean-Marc Bustamante, Damian Ortega, Carrie Mae Weems and Bertien van Manen.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art is at 1000 Fifth Avenue. For information, 212-535-7710 or www.metmuseum.org.
