Garry Winogrand

photographer

Garry Winogrand (1928–1984) was a pioneering American street photographer known for his frenetic and candid documentation of U.S. life in the mid-20th century. Born in the Bronx to Jewish immigrants, he studied painting at City College of New York and Columbia University before pursuing photography. He worked as a freelance photojournalist and advertising photographer in the 1950s and 60s, notably contributing images to 'The Family of Man' exhibition (1955). Winogrand was a central figure in the development of street photography as an attitude and style, influencing generations of photographers with his distinctive framing. He received three Guggenheim Fellowships and a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship. His major monographs include 'The Animals' (1969), 'Women are Beautiful' (1975), and 'Public Relations' (1977). He died in 1984 from gallbladder cancer while seeking alternative treatment in Mexico.[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35]
