Press Release

Sundaram Tagore Madison presents an exhibition  by world-renowned Magnum photographer Steve McCurry. The show brings together some of  the award-winning artist's most iconic works alongside a selection of never-before-seen photographs that provide new perspectives on many of the locations McCurry is best known for, including Cambodia, Croatia, Pakistan and Ethiopia.  
 
McCurry has travelled the globe for his photographic projects, covering areas of international and civil conflict and documenting ancient traditions, vanishing cultures and contemporary culture. His exquisite use of color and unwavering commitment to retain the human element has made his images timelessly captivating.
