Avedon Fashion 1944-2000 Description
Avedon Fashion 1944-2000 encompasses seven decades of extraordinary images by Richard Avedon, the most influential fashion photographer of the 20th century.
This comprehensive volume offers a definitive survey, from Avedon's groundbreaking early photographs for Harper's Bazaar through his constantly inventive contributions to Vogue, Egoiste, and The New Yorker. Each carefully selected image represents an artistic collaboration with significant models, stylists, and designers. Avedon Fashion accompanies the first major exhibition to survey this body of work, at the International Center of Photography in May 2009. With critical essays by Carol Squiers, curator at the ICP, and photography critic Vince Aletti, as well as an appreciation by photo-historian Philippe Garner, Avedon Fashion chronicles an astonishing record of photographic achievement.

I bought this book after seeing the exhibition of Avedon's work at the International Center for Photography in NYC. Check out the exhibit - Avedon's imagery is so inspired and unique. His inspiration still reveberates in today's photography - all the great fashion photogs of today borrow from him. A must have.

The photos are clear and well presented. Avedon is a genious. You will NOT be disappointed.
