[Richard Avedon]
'This autobiography isn't chronological. I haven't lived chronologically. No one does.'
Richard Avedon presents his life through his photos. He offers no path from A to B, but rather creates connections through photos past and present and future. Images from throughout Avedon's career are paired together to create dynamic juxtapositions and inferred commentary. Signed by Avedon.
