"Life": Classic Photographs by John Loengard

This collection is a showcase for photographs that should astonish, amaze, delight and amuse, elict compassion and alert us to history. From a panorama spanning from the 1930s to the 1990s, former "Life" picture editor John Loengard has selected 120 of his favourite images, both colour and black and white, and several stories covered in the past seven years. Loengard provides an insider's account of each photograph, accompanied by anecdotes. Among the images shown here are Robert Capa's "D-Day", John Bryson's portrait of Henry Fonda, a photograph from Larry Burrow's compelling body of work on Vietnam, Ian Bradshaw's famous streaker, and Therese Frare's moving study of AIDS. Margaret Bourke, Alfred Eisenstaedt, W. Eugene Smith, Harry Benson and Mary Ellen Mark are also featured.
