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.”
