Description:
"Arnold Newman: Masterclass" is on display at Ransom Center
Photographer Arnold Newman (1918-2006) created iconic portraits of some of the most influential innovators, celebrities and cultural figures of the twentieth century. A bold modernist with a superb sense of compositional geometry, Newman is known for a crisp, spare style that situates his subjects in their personal surroundings rather than a studio. Closed Mondays. Visit link for museum hours.

Newman's archive resides at the Ransom Center. Marlene Dietrich, Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy, Arthur Miller, Salvador Dali and Pablo Picasso are only a few of his celebrated sitters. Featuring more than 200 of these well-known masterworks, "Arnold Newman: Masterclass" also includes rarely seen work prints and contact sheets.

The first major exhibition of the photographer's work since his death, the exhibit showcases the entire range of Newman's photography, featuring many prints for the first time.
