NORMAN PARKINSON is the
subject of a new photography exhibition, opening on Friday March 1 at the
National Theatre and we have an exclusive preview to show you. The display
coincides with centenary anniversary of the legendary image-maker's birth.
The showcase traces Parkinson's lengthy career - from his first photographs
taken before World War II to shots created before his death in 1990. Visitors
can expect to see portraits of the royal family, famous stage, screen,
political and music stars, as well as pictures of his dramatic, elegant and
pioneering fashion photography.
Parkinson is known for capturing the fashion world from the Forties through
to the Nineties, introducing innovative juxtapositions, unexpected props and
exotic locations. Read his friends and family's take on his impressive legacy
in the March issue of Vogue, on sale now.
Lifework: Norman Parkinson's Century of Style opens on March 1 until May 12.
