The Anton Kern Gallery has a website that represents its artists well, and also provides photos from past exhibitions as far back as 1996. Not every listed exhibit had images when I first looked a few years ago, but there are at least a few for each show now, as far as I could tell. The newer exhibits have press releases as well, and more images from each exhibit. One odd thing that I found was that if I started going through the pictures using the arrows by the numbers to the left, I was shown the images in sequence, but if I clicked on the photos themselves, I was taken to the pictures from the current exhibition. It's easy enough to get back to where I was, but annoying just the same.
I first found out about this gallery through a New York Times review by Michael Kimmelman, Pulp Nonfiction, Ripped From the Tabloids, of Enrique Metinides' show there from December 1, 2006 to January 13, 2007. Metinides is a Mexican news photographer with an incredible eye for taking a striking shot of a crime or an accident. The Wikipedia entry doesn't have much information about this photographer but a Google search found this video (with ads) at VBS.tv of him describing and showing his work.

Embrace! this
Embrace! at the Denver Art Museum is an exhibition that has a very thorough web presence. There are seventeen artists with work on display, and each has a separate webpage. On the ones I checked there were descriptions of the exhibit, info about the artist, and, best of all, photos of the installation of each piece of art, with lots of details of the nitty-gritty of installation.
Past exhibitions Check how far back full webpages are present. Even older ones have some good pictures.
