The Florida Museum of Photographic Arts will exhibit Women are
Beautiful, by famous street photographer Garry Winogrand, from
September 10 - December 31, 2019. Women are beautiful is on loan from
the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art in Kansas City, Ohio and
consists of 85 images of women that encapsulate fashions, energy, and
attitudes of the 1960s and 1970s. Street photographer Garry Winogrand
(1928 - 1984) is famous for photographing the streets of New York with
his 35 mm Leica mid-20th century. He captured moments that both became
historical documents of a time of big social changes as well as
regular everyday life in the United States. Street photography became
a popular way of documenting urban life and capturing specific moments
as cameras became smaller and easier to operate. Winogrand worked
alongside famous street photographers Joel Meyerowitz (1938) and Lee
Friedlander (1934) but many say he defined mid-century street
photography with his energetic style and keen eye for fashion and
attitude.
