Sundaram Tagore Gallery
547 W 27th StSundaram Tagore Gallery is pleased to present a retrospective of one of the world’s most renowned photographers in his first major gallery show in more than a decade. Ken Heyman’s show, titled “Humanity,” opens with a cocktail reception on Thursday, January 31 from 6:30-8:30 p.m. and runs through February 23. The exhibition will include some of Heyman’s work that has never been seen before.
Heyman spent 20 years working for famed anthropologist Margaret Mead, shot over 150 assignments for LIFE magazine, and authored 54 books. This exhibition is a retrospective that chronicles over 50 years of Heyman’s career, including photographs from 60 countries spanning every continent. From East to South Asia, from North to South America, from Eastern to Western Europe, and more, the exhibition includes an enormous body of work. Represented are the world’s most humble to the world’s most influential figures - villagers in Peru and in Bali, and portraits of Pablo Picasso, Marilyn Monroe and Andy Warhol, to name a few.
Sundaram Tagore, curator, said that, “Ken possesses a comprehensive world perspective. His work is global and enduring. His extensive travels have taken him to the world’s most remote corners - and its nerve centers. He extends our understanding of this vast world. Ken Heyman has managed to capture the flow of history in the most personal sense.”
