The exhibition, to be held at the Philadelphia Museum of Art from October 3, 1981 to January 3, 1982, will be the first major exhibition devoted to O'Sullivan's photographs. It will include over 200 photographs from the work accomplished during the Civil War, the King and Wheeler expeditions to the American West, and the Selfridge expedition to Panama. The exhibition and publication will intensively explore the mind and travels of a photographer in relation to the severe hardships, dramatic changes, and vital explorations of his time.
