Artist
Elliot ERWITT (Paris 1928)
Born into a Jewish family of Russian origin in Paris. He studied film at The New School in New York and met the famous photographers Robert Capa and Edward Steichen in 1952, after which he decided to become a photographer. From 1953 he would contribute to the cooperative photography association Magnum Photos, of which he would be chairman between 1966 and 1969.
Erwitt made a name for himself as a portrait photographer in the 1950s and 1960s, taking famous photographs of the likes of Jacqueline Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe, Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. He also became known for his somewhat mischievous black-and-white snapshot photos, often with an ironic-absurdist slant.
Erwitt was recognized by the British Royal Photographic Society and the International Center of Photography, among others. He is married to the German writer and director Pia Frankenberg and lives and works in New York. His work can be seen in many major museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and the Louvre in Paris.
