Exhibition - Retrospective - Bruce Davidson 

Bruce Davidson 

Bruce Davidson began a passionate relationship with photography at a very young age. Rather than corresponding to a particular style, his work is characterized by a commitment to a personal view of reality. His craft is not necessarily revealed in individual images, but rather throughout the entirety of his work in the repetition and juxtaposition of themes and characters. Davidson’s charismatic presence earned him intimate access to his subjects’ lives, through which we receive a unique view based on trust and respect.
