Talk

SVA Continuing Education and MPS Digital Photography present Annie Leibovitz, one of the most influential photographers of our time, as she talks about her new book, Wonderland.

Fashion has been both the subject of, and the vehicle for, many of Annie Leibovitz’s images, which have graced the covers and interiors of countless publications and magazines around the world. In conversation, Leibovitz will share stories from her ambitious fashion shoots—including looks by designers such as Alexander McQueen, Yves Saint Laurent and Rei Kawakubo—alongside tales of her encounters with a wide and diverse range of icons: from fashion designers such as Stella McCartney and Karl Lagerfeld to Kate Moss, Serena Williams, politicians Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Nancy Pelosi and cultural figures, namely, Queen Elizabeth II, Lady Gaga and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.

Starting in 1970, when Leibovitz began creating what became her ground-breaking work for Rolling Stone, to her work at Vogue and Vanity Fair in the 1980s, and through to the present day, Leibovitz will reflect on her career, the individuals she has photographed, the editors she has worked with and how her distinctive approach has developed and evolved over the last half-century.

Spend an evening with the legendary photographer as she provides a passport to Wonderland, a world where fashion is revealed in unexpected subjects and places, and photography is celebrated in its highest form.

This is an opportunity to hear Annie Leibovitz speak in person and obtain an autographed copy of her new book, Wonderland. This event is presented by APA-NY and co-sponsored by SVA’s Masters in Digital Photography program and SVA Continuing Education.
