Richard Avedon


What do Jimmy Durante, Georgia O’Keeffe and Andy Warhol have in common?
They were all shot by American photographer, Richard Avedon. For over fifty years, Richard Avedon’s portraits have been in some of the country’s finest magazines. His stark imagery and brilliant insight into his subjects’ characters has made him one of the most influential commercial photographers. Richard's artistic spin makes his work go beyond the norm in commercial photography. This artist stood out to me when I was researching for project one because of his unique take on portraits.
