LIFE
Atlas Gallery is pleased to present LIFE, an exhibition of photographs celebrating the golden age of the first American all-photographic magazine. LIFE’s photographers documented the most important events, memorable people and places in modern history. The exhibition will showcase the work of stellar names associated with the magazine, such as Andreas Feininger, Joe Rosenthal, Margaret Bourke-White, Alfred Eisenstaedt, John Dominis, John Loengard, Nina Leen and J.R. Eyerman, whose professional engagement in the events of the 20th century led to an epic form of photojournalism that captured both momentous and intimate moments with unparalleled perception.
