Amsterdam | 14/05/2009 - 13/05/2009 Richard Avedon: Photographs 1946 – 2004

Last stop of this first major travelling retrospective featuring over 200 photographs by the American photographer Richard Avedon (1923–2004), after his death. The works on show are presented in chronological order, from his first photos made in Italy in 1946 to his final portraits, made shortly before his death in 2004. The exhibition demonstrates the range of Avedon’s unique vision: from the glamour of the Parisian fashion world of the early 1950s, the many portraits of public figures, his ten-meter-long work ‘The Factory’, a selection from his famous ‘In the American West’ series, to photos taken shortly before his death in 2004. Avedon stipulated before his death that no posthumous prints were to be made from his negatives, or from files based on his negatives. This means that the number of prints of his work is limited to those which were made during his own lifetime or were personally approved by him. (this travelling exhibition was on sho!
w before in Copenhagen, Milan, Paris and Berlin)
