  Looking for Desire

  In the summer of 2014, the acclaimed German publisher Gerhard Steidl approached NSCAD University with an enticing proposition. Would NSCAD be interested in premiering a pop-up exhibition of artwork by Robert Frank? The work would be brought to the university, installed by Steidl and his staff, and Robert Frank and his wife, June Leaf, would attend the opening. Steidl generously donated the exhibition, with no expense to the University, in part as a strategy to expose a new generation of artists to the work of Robert Frank, in an exhibition format that was affordable, fluid and relaxed. The exhibition would also renew an ongoing relationship that Robert Frank has had with the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design since 1973.
