Lee Miller's War

About

Saturday 29 November 2014 - Sunday 22 February 2015

Djanogly Art Gallery Opening Hours
Monday - Saturday 11am - 5pm
Sundays 12noon - 4pm

A remarkable female icon of the 20th century best known as a model and surrealist photographer, this exhibition focuses on one of the least recognised aspects of Lee Miller's life - her years as a photojournalist during WW2. Working as a freelance photographer for Vogue, in 1944 Lee Miller became accredited as a war correspondent with the US Army. She was the only woman in combat journalism in Europe during WW2 and witnessed the liberation of Paris and the Russian/American link up in Torau. She was also one of the first to arrive at the Buchenwald and Dachau concentration camps.

Lee Miller's photographs function not only as historical records but also as powerful images in their own right that sear unforgettably into the memory.
