You look at the photography exhibit and some of the pictures in the photography exhibit show scenes that are familiar, things that are recognizable. some of the pictures in the photography exhibit show unfamiliar places and scenes. Some of the photos in a photography exhibit show things that are not recognizable to you. At one photography exhibit, all the pictures make sense to you and you think you understand what is being shown and what is being said by the photography exhibit. While at another photography exhibit, nothing you see seems to make any sense. This photography exhibit remains a mystery to you. What did this photography exhibit want to express? Why was this photography exhibit held? What did the photographer or photographers at this photography exhibit want to express?

Sometimes, even when a photo at a photography exhibit doesn't make any immediate sense, if you look at it long enough, the pictures begin to make some statement to you. But some photos at a photography exhibit just never seem to come into focus. This doesn't make the photography exhibit bad, just a bit more confusing for you. You wouldn't want to have photography exhibit you go to show things that are all the same and have every photography exhibit make immediate sense. No. A photography exhibit should be powerful and surprising.
