While in NYC last week, I had the total pleasure of attending the Avedon Fashion 1944-2000 exhibit at the International Center for Photography. It was one of those wonderful NYC moments where you simply stumble onto something incredible that you were not planning on attending, but then it becomes a trip favorite. The exhibit highlights Avedon's fashion photography from his career days at Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, The New Yorker and more. The images are iconic, glamorous, gritty, beautiful and imaginative. It's hard to imagine the look of fashion magazines today without his groundbreaking photographs of yesterday. The true test of course is that his photos are as current and fresh today as they were then.
