He enters the photography studio at New York's New School for Social Research, where he meets Alexei Brodovich and begins his long-term collaboration with Conde Nast. First from Harper's Bazaar, then from Vogue. He works closely with Diana Vreeland and she brings her vision of people to life through his camera. There is not much material with him in the film "The Eye Must Travel"; by the time the film was shot, he had also died. But there is a story by another photographer, David Bailey, about what it's like to collaborate with Vreeland. When you work to exhaustion, to full return, everything is not right, not right, and finally a miracle happens and Diana says: Magnificent, brilliant! But we will not print it - there is not enough languor in the lips. Avedon could convey languor in his lips, feelings in his eyes, any fleeting shade of emotion. Photos of Avedon are only the personality of the person being portrayed, no scenery is needed, nothing is needed, the personality does not need props, these queens and kings are not played by their retinue. Today's fashion photographers evoke enthusiasm with intricate scenery, outrageous makeup, smoke, wind, flying snowflakes, birds, clouds, tsunamis, etc. In the photo of Avedon, the figure is against the background of a bare backdrop, alone with everyone.

21. I love this very famous Kennedy family portrait. He is looking forward, lively and energetic, she is looking not at the frame, but at him, immediately there is a feeling “what a wonderful couple they are!” Here's how to campaign.
22. And this furious woman is the American singer and film actress Lena Horne, a black woman, too white for the black community and still not white enough for whites. Remember Coppola's The Cotton Club? One of the heroines is completely written off from her.
I hope you enjoyed it and thank you for your attention.
