Annie Leibovitz: A Photographer’s Life, 1990–2005
March 1, 2008 — May 25, 2008 |
|
Annie Leibovitz: A Photographer's Life, 1990–2005 closes on May 25. To make certain you have a chance to see this exhibition, we recommend the following: The Legion of Honor will be closed on Memorial Day (Monday, May 26), so the last day to see the exhibition is Sunday, May 25.
For decades, Annie Leibovitz has artistically captured the icons of popular culture with her award-winning photography. Annie Leibovitz: A Photographer’s Life, 1990–2005 looks at 200 of these photos as well as those she has taken of her family and close friends, and thus views a full “photographer’s life.” As Leibovitz says: “I don’t have two lives. This is one life, and the personal pictures and the assignment work are all part of it.”
Included in this exhibition are portraits of a pregnant Demi Moore, Nelson Mandela in Soweto, and George W. Bush in the White House; searing photojournalism from the siege of Sarajevo; haunting landscapes from the American West and Jordan; and personal photos documenting the birth of her three daughters and other scenes of private family life.Credit Line
