From the U.K.: From One Extreme to the Other-- The Photography of Nat Finkelstein


Three Icons. Poster from the Idea Generation Gallery Show on the photography of Nat Finkelstein. Photograph by Nat Finkelstein.

Nat Finkelstein was one of the most respected photojournalists of modern times. Renowned for his iconic and intimate documentation of Andy Warhol's infamous Factory, and later his political activism including an allegiance with The Black Panthers that forced him to live abroad for 15 years, Finkelstein remained at the heart of the cultural zeitgeist up until his death aged 76, 2nd October 2009.

If you happen to be in London between now and February 14, this is a show to catch.
