Avedon 100 celebrates Avedon’s enduring influence on photography
and makes clear his profound impression on visual culture
worldwide. Published on the occasion of the eponymous exhibition at
Gagosian, New York, in 2023, this striking illustrated catalogue
celebrates the centenary of the iconic photographer’s birth. Over
one hundred celebrated artists, designers, musicians, writers,
curators, and figures from the world of fashion were asked to
select a photograph by Avedon and elaborate on the ways in which
both the image and artist have made an impact on their lives.
Participants include Hilton Als, Naomi Campbell, Elton John, Spike
Lee, Sally Mann, Polly Mellen, Kate Moss, Chloë Sevigny, Taryn
Simon, Christy Turlington, and Jonas Wood. Avedon 100 celebrates
Avedon’s enduring influence on photography and makes clear his
profound impression on visual culture worldwide. The book
represents various periods from his oeuvre, including the widely
known In the American West series, images of the social justice
movement, classic portraiture, advertising, and fashion work. The
photographs reproduced reveal the enormous and fascinating
diversity of Avedon’s subjects, while the commentary offered by
the celebrated selectors underscores the breadth and longevity of
his legacy. Avedon 100 includes a foreword by Larry Gagosian, texts
by Derek Blasberg and Jake Skeets, and an essay by Sarah Elizabeth
Lewis.
