2-TIMES · Art
Don McCullin @
Hauser & Wirth,
Los Angeles
— 

A unique ability to 
convey the emotion 
and humanity of his 
subject matter with 
the unvarnished grit 
of photojournalism...” 

The exhibition: 
Is British-born 
Sir Don Mccullin’s 
first gallery exhibition
in the United States,
and includes a
selection of his
acclaimed images
of war from around
the world and
societal upheaval
in his country.  
— 
The majority of works
on view are limited-
edition platinum prints,
created through a
special photographic
process that delivers
a particularly wide range
of tones unattainable
in more conventional
gelatin silver prints 
— 
This work is therapeutic.
I couldn’t be happier 
than when I am standing 
in the cold on Hadrian’s 
Wall, waiting for the right 
light. The platinums are 
the essence. They are as 
far as you can go with what 
I am trying to do and say.”
