About
Richard Avedon photographed the faces of politics throughout his career, & this text brings together his political portraits. Juxtaposing images of elite government, media & labour officials with counter-cultural activists, writers & artists, & ordinary citizens caught up in debates, it explores a five-decade taxonomy of politics & power.
