A top photographer for top models Renowned as a leading fashion magazine photographer, Richard Avedon continues to seek out and photograph the world's most beautiful women. Ever since 1945, when he began to work with Harper's Bazaar, Avedon has produced a wealth of stunning photographs for Life, Look and Vogue magazines. His rise to fame was so meteoric that, by the 1950s, he was already the best-known fashion photographer of his day. The superlatives that have been showered on Richard Avedon are borne out by this exhibition devoted entirely to his work. This lover of the "emotional geography" of face and body continues to fascinate and bewitch the masses with his photos - a sheer delight on glossy paper.
