MoMA’s The Original Copy was the number one photography show in 2010, and secured the sixth spot in the overall list, although the addition of sculpture helped draw crowds from several artistic camps. This year’s list includes familiar venues besides MoMA, such as SFMoMA, as well as the up and coming museum, Queensland’s Gallery of Modern ARt, where Douglas Kirkland no doubt received a boost by being part of the Brisbane Festival 2010. The Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize at the National Portrait Gallery, London, dropped a place and fell by 25,000 in total attendance from 2009, but it still secured the museum top-ten status.
