Richard Avedon

IMPACTRichard Avedon is thought to be

one of the most influential photographers of the 20th

Century. Not only has he taken definitive portraits of the cultural

and political leaders of the last fifty years, his work focuses on

subjects such as fashion, the Civil Rights movement, and the fall of

the Berlin Wall.

HOMAGE

I decided to homage Richard Avedon because I find his shots to be interesting and I enjoy

capturing portraits of people. Within my project I incorporated poses that Avedon himself have had

his models execute.
