"Each day more than three billion images are shared on social networks," curator Peter Szendy writes in the foreword of Supermarket of Images, a thematic exhibit underway at the Red Brick Museum in Beijing.
That feeling of being inundated by photos may be exactly what grabs visitors as soon as they enter the museum.
