The Dallas Museum of Art offers 140 photographs by Irving Penn, (1917–2009), the first retrospective in twenty years.
Irving Penn: Beyond Beauty showcases “one of the best-known American photographers of the 20th century. In a career that spanned almost seventy years, Penn worked on professional and artistic projects across multiple genres. He was a master of both black-and-white and color photography, and he was key to the revival of platinum printing in the 1960s and 1970s.”
