Join us Saturday at 12 noon Pacific time for a live talk with the legendary Tony Vaccaro.
We are proud to represent Tony's vast archive and are exhibiting a selection of his photographs during the Virtual Collect and Connect fair hosted by photo la.
Tickets available here.
Tony Vaccaro, currently 97, is one of the few people alive who can claim to have survived the Battle of Normandy and COVID-19. Tony Vaccaro survived WWII, fighting the enemy while also documenting his experience at great risk. Post war, he started his career as an editorial and commercial photographer and went on to become one the most celebrated photographers of his day.
