I like this museum very much. There are several photographers in it. Although the museum is free, they welcome you to donate $5, which is worth it. The exhibition featured photographs of transsexuals and homosexuals banned in Iran. There are seats and information about each photographer on the wall. Very interesting photos and videos.
A very modern photography museum, photographers must go and see it.

Chicago is known as the Museum of Contemporary Skyscrapers, where skyscrapers of different styles and sculptures, lakes, and parks have won awards for photographs taken on Lake Michigan and Michigan Avenue. The Museum of Photography has a great collection of works about the city. More than 7,000 black-and-white to color photographs are also the best portraits of American history.
