For sure I wasn't implying "no titles" as indeed, having a "handle" to refer to an image by is largely essential.

"Mona Lisa" would I bet not be as famous as it is if actually called
"AFF0-0143-B0C3-AA67".

Your idea of letting viewers (listen to a few other people) influence the title is on I could try perhaps. Maybe an author can be too close to "what they wanted the image to be about" whereas a new viewer can only respond to what is actually in it.

Writing reviews for a show is another thing entirely I guess.  You want to attract people to come so I'll bet you need to "talk the pictures up".  I can't imagine being attracted by a flyer that mentions "New work by AZ, 10 panoramas, 3 portraits and a square format picture".  You need words to make people want to come.

Do you come up with the speel for your own shows yourself?
