Irving Penn (1917–2009) was a top photographer in fashion, still life and everyone´s favorite, the celebrity portrait. He would make us go further and dig deeper and look beyond the obvious solution to a photograph to find something that was unique. Penn was known to sketch a design for a photograph before taking it
He photograph many a layout for Vogue and had his first cover shot in 1943. His style is characterized by the stark clarity in his art. His photos have a sharpness to them that set him apart from other photographers that tend to distract away from their focal point. His signature technique was using gray or white backgrounds behind his subjects. This broke away from traditional shot settings and modernized fashion photography by eliminating props and photographing models directly.
Irving Penn captured the faces, and personalities, of celebrities from movie stars Spencer Tracy to Nicolle Kidman. Other personalities included artists Georgia O'Keeff, Picasso and Dali, author Truman Capote, and famed celebrities Al Pacino, Grace Kelly, Sophia Lauren, and Kate Moss.
His edgy photographs are part of permanent collections in numerous museums, including the MOMA, the Smithsonian, the Met, and the Art Institute of Chicago, as well as being loaned out on tour to other venues during the course of the year.
