All About Avedon

Trying to get away from the wind and rain on Saturday, we popped into the International Center of Photography. To my absolute delight there was a Richard Avedon exhibition on, showing just some of his fashion photography for Harper's Bazaar, Vogue and The New Yorker from 1944-2000.

If you are in New York this month, the exhibition runs until September 20th. There is also a book that has been produced especially for the exhibition that is available from the ICP website and from Amazon. I just purchased mine and am eagerly awaiting its arrival.

A very exciting addition to my bookshelf, Scott Schuman's new book which is 500 pages of his fabulous street photography. He also includes a few little snippets of information about some of his favourite subjects (and mine, there is a whole section on Carine!). I think it's a wonderful idea to make something like this into a book. I have folders on my laptop filled with just some of my favourite Sartorialist pictures but sitting down at a computer cannot compare to grabbing a cup of coffee and perusing the pages of this great little book. I got mine at the International Center of Photography but you can get this edition and the Bespoke Edition on Amazon.
