Eve Arnold ist gestorben

Die 1912 in Philadelphia (USA) geborene amerikanische Fotografin Eve Arnold (Bild) ist am 4. Januar dieses Jahres in London gestorben. Sie lebte seit 1961 in England. Eve Arnold wurde 1951 als erste Frau Mitglied bei Magnum Photos, seit 1957 war sie Vollmitglied.

Celebrated Magnum photographer who documented ‚the poor, the old and the underdog‘, as well as the stars

 

«The longevity of Eve Arnold’s career as a photographer matched the heterogeneity of her work. Despite the success of her portraits of the rich and famous, Arnold, who has died aged 99, was equally well known for photographing ‚the poor, the old and the underdog‘. She said: ‚It’s the hardest thing in the world to take the mundane and try to show how special it is.'»

(In 1987, American photojournalist Eve Arnold was interviewed about the photos she made of actress Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn trusted Arnold more than any other photographer, which resulted in many beautiful and intimate portraits, made between 1951 and 1962.)
