Richard Avedon revolutionized fashion photography in the post-World War II era with his spirited, imaginative images of the modern woman. This spectacular exhibition will feature more than 160 works – including edition and vintage prints, contact sheets, and original magazines – created during Avedon’s long career at Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, The New Yorker, and beyond.
The exhibition was organized by the International Center of Photography with the cooperation of The Richard Avedon Foundation, New York; Fraenkel Gallery, San Francisco; and Pace/MacGill Gallery, New York. This exhibition and its catalogue were made possible with a major lead grant from the Henry Luce Foundation. Additional support was received from the ICP Exhibitions Committee, National Endowment for the Arts, Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation, Harper's Bazaar, and other generous corporate, foundation, and individual donors.Local presentation of this exhibition is made possible in part through the generosity of William and Sarah Ross Soter, Gilbert and Ann Maurer, Starbucks Coffee Company, and The Photography Committee of the Norton Museum of Art.Norton Museum of Art 09.02.2010 - 09.05.2010
