In the mid-1960s, Richard Avedon is the most famous photographer in the world, redefining fashion and celebrity while becoming an icon himself. But as America is shaken by the war in Vietnam and racial strife, he struggles to reinvent himself as a serious artist, showing the country as it is—not as it pretends to be.

You can see more than a dozen of Avedon's most famous photographs, including his portrait of Marilyn Monroe and Dovima with elephants, in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art: https://collections.artsmia.org/search/Richard%20Avedon
