Richard Avedon revolutionized fashion photography — and redefined the role of the fashion photographer — in the post-World War II era with his imaginative images of the modern woman. This exhibition features more than 200 works and spans Avedon’s entire career, including vintage prints, contact sheets, and original magazines from Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue and The New Yorker. The exhibit also serves as the backdrop for this year’s Black & White Ball Saturday at the museum.

When: Tuesday through May 9

Where: Norton Museum of Art, 1451 S. Olive Ave., West Palm Beach. $12 for adults, $5 for ages 13-21, free for members and children younger than 13.
