Portrait Photography by Richard Avedon

One of the most productive and important partnerships between art director and photographer was that of Brodovitch and Richard Avedon. Working together on Harper’s Bazaar and Portfolio magazines, Brodovitch was undoubtedly Avedon’s greatest influence. Under the designer’s wing, Avedon developed a repertory of stylistic effects that included blurred motion, activity frozen in mid stride, out of focus faces, incongruous subject matter and a cinema verité that resembled the ‘available light’ school of photojournalism.

Retro Photography by Stanko Abadžic

Stanko Abadzic was born in 1952 in Vukovar, Croatia. When he was 15, his father gave him a camera that Abadzic taught himself to use. He also joined a photography club, studied photography books, and attended photographic exhibitions. After marrying, he worked as a reporter and photojournalist to support his family.



When the Croatian War of Independence broke out in 1991, Abadzic left everything and fled with his family to Germany for what he hoped would be a brief stay. After four difficult years, during which he took few photographs, they were denied German citizenship and forced to leave. After moving to Prague, Abadzic experienced a rebirth and began exploring the city with a medium-format camera. At this point in 1995, he began to develop his visual eye in earnest.
