Marion Palfi described herself as a social research photographer interested in combining social issues with an art form in order to heighten the power and utility of photography. She died in 1978, still relatively obscure as an artist in the eyes of the public. Her failure to attain popular recognition for her work during her lifetime was due largely to the unromantic, non-sentimental, harsh nature of her photographs which are devoid of pictorial niceties and brutally direct. The Marion Palfi Archive and Collection, a gift to the Center from the Menninger Foundation and Martin Magner, husband of Palfi, has created an ideal forum for the public to be able to finally appreciate her work.
