Avedon: Women


  • Rizzoli
  • by Joan Juliet Buck, Abigail Solomon-Godeau
Over his sixty-year career, photographer Richard Avedon was renowned for his distinctive, transformative eye. Women were often his subject, through his commercial fashion work for Harper's Bazaar and Vogue, and in his portraiture of both the famous and the unknown. What might have been pictured as prosaic or unattractive through another photographer's lens was presented by Avedon as unconventional but surprising, sometimes revelatory.

Description

Over his sixty-year career, photographer Richard Avedon was renowned for his distinctive, transformative eye. Women were often his subject, through his commercial fashion work for Harper's Bazaar and Vogue, and in his portraiture of both the famous and the unknown. What might have been pictured as prosaic or unattractive through another photographer's lens was presented by Avedon as unconventional but surprising, sometimes revelatory. Through approximately 120 images, Avedon: Women will attempt to explicate Avedon's unique, artistic perspective. The exhibition will be on view at Gagosian Gallery Beverly Hills in the fall of 2013.
