Perfect Father's day show:
Walter Iooss: Victory Lap
An online exhibition featuring fifty photographs celebrating the life's work of legendary sports photographer Walter Iooss, Jr. Often cited as the "Rembrandt" of sports photography due to his use of light, color, and composition, Iooss has the innate ability to capture what Henri Cartier-Bresson defined as the “decisive moment.” His images transcend the fame of his subjects, and have come to represent modern sports culture.
