We are the children

The subjects of the new photography exhibition at the DeCordova don't have much in common. They're from different places and economic backgrounds, dating from the early 1900s to present day. But they share one important quality - youth. The 113 photographs and one video in "Presumed Innocence: Photographic Perspectives of Children" come from local collectors Anthony and Beth Terrana, who are drawn to pictures of children because of the "pure sense of what they were seeing and feeling." The photographs, by artists including Diane Arbus, Henri Cartier-Bresson, and Dorothea Lange, show that no matter the place, no matter the time, kids will be kids. Opening reception today 3-5 p.m. Exhibit up through April 27. DeCordova Museum, 51 Sandy Pond Road, Lincoln. 781-259-3629. decordova.org
