A tribute to Richard Avedon (1923-2004), the American photographer who linked his name and his shots to iconic magazines such as Harper's Bazaar, Vogue and The New Yorker. A renowned portraitist, Avedon was among the early fathers of fashion photography, whose style he revolutionised when, as early as 1945, he abandoned static poses to place models in real settings. Avedon's images are almost cinematographic, leading the viewer to imagine the tales and stories they seem to evoke. In front of Avedon's lens not only the most famous models of the time passed by, but also a rich array of personalities including actors, dancers, celebrities, artists, musicians, writers, civil rights activists and even heads of state. Moreover, not infrequently the same subject was portrayed several times and at different periods, creating true photographic relationships that reveal different aspects of both the person portrayed and their relationship with the photographer. Produced in collaboration with the Center for Creative Photography and the Richard Avedon Foundation (with main partner Versace and media partner Vogue Italia), Richard Avedon. Relationships presents over one hundred iconic fashion photographs and portraits from the Center for Creative Photography's extensive collection.
