Richard Avedon Memorial Photographs
October 7, 2004 – June 5, 2005
In memory of Richard Avedon (1923-2004)—one of the most influential and celebrated American photographers of our time—7 of his photographs are on view. For more than 60 years, he produced distinctive fashion and advertising photography, though his portraits with their stark white backgrounds are considered his most memorable.
