legendary




1964-2004
Whether photographing politicians, artists, writers, fashion models, or movie stars, Richard Avedon revolutionized the genre of portraiture. He rejected conventional stiff-and-staid poses and instead captured both motion and emotion in the faces of his subjects, often encapsulating their intrigue in a single charged moment.

( first tuesdays of each month = free admission...... now you have no excuse)

**NOTE** due to the universe also hearting "free", long lines deterred my date with avedon today at lunch......
