Richard Avedon: Portraits of Power.

I drove by the San Diego museums, and saw that there is a Richard Avedon exhibit at the San Diego Museum of Art.

Richard Avedon: Portraits of Power traces Avedon’s interest in and fascination with American politics through 200 portraits created from the 1950s until the photographer’s death in 2004. During his six-decade career, Richard Avedon was arguably the most important American fashion photographer and portraitist. This exhibition traces Avedon’s fascination with the forces behind American democracy. Together, these photographs represent both an historical group portrait. SDMA is hosting the only West Coast viewing of the exhibition, on view during a season of unprecedented political change and focus on those who lead us. Richard Avedon: Portraits of Power is organized by the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C
