Museums of what?

We read:

Camera museums / List of camera and photography museums

I think it's small-minded to attempt to separate cameras from photography. On the other hand, cameras are easily divisible from finished photographs. A number of the Japanese museums listed are galleries that concentrate on the work of a particular photographer (usually dead); these often give space to other photograph exhibitions, and may very well exhibit the photographer's own camera(s), but aren't camera museums by any stretch of the term. I suggest getting rid of these. -- Hoary 00:19, 23 April 2007 (EDT)

More concretely:

  • Machida City Museum of Photography
    • Seems to be mostly devoted to the photographs of Akiyama Shoutarou
  • Irie Taikichi Memorial Museum of Photography Nara City
    • The name suggests that it's devoted to the works of Irie.
  • Shoji Ueda Museum of photography
    • The name suggests that it's devoted to the works of Ueda.
  • Kiyosato Museum of Photographic Arts
    • A gallery of photographs.
  • Shiro Shirahata Photo Gallery
    • The name suggests that it's devoted to the works of Shirahata.

So let's have the courage to be big-minded: museums which show both arts, the art of photographic imaging (artful images) AND the art of photographic imaging (photographic technology, i.e. cameras) are the exception: JCII, or Eastman House. The recognition of the art form photography is not as wide-spread as we could wish. Presenting a list of the museums which present the arts of photographic imaging makes sense. Photography artists can be inspired to new image ideas by seeing historic camera conceptions created by photographic geniuses, as well as camera fans can rejoice seeing the fantastic images enabled by the technology when used by photographic geniuses.
