Richard Avedon (1923 - 2004)The fashion photos I found particularly genius were taken during the 1940's-1960's; the frozen movement caught mid-grace. . . the juxtaposition of often incongruous figure-ground elements or figure-figure comparisons of certain depth. . .
Avedon found and captured beauty in the profiles of unconventional beauties. . .
The composition of his later work was no less genius - the balance of static and fluid , but I preferred the relative uncontrived charm of his earlier work. . .
We have lost a master of the art of fashion photography.
