ICONS, one of the most complete retrospectives of famous American photographer, Steve McCurry, is currently on display at Williamstown’s Seaworks Maritime Precinct.
The exhibition features more than 100 large-format photographs of McCurry’s most iconic images, including the legendary 1984 portrait of the Afghan Girl, Sharbat Gula which was famously featured on the cover of National Geographic magazine.
The showing also includes other very well-known pictures he captured throughout his forty years of profession, as well as his most recent work.
The ICONS exhibition will take guests in the photographic universe of Steve McCurry, through a journey that took him to some of the most beautiful and harrowing parts of the world from Afghanistan to India, Southeast Asia to Africa, Cuba to the United States and Brazil to Italy.
Fever Originals regional manager for Asia-Pacific, Phil Mallet, said, “we are Incredibly honoured and excited to bring Steve McCurry’s ICONS exhibition to Melburnians, particularly at such a storied, heritage building.
“We’re grateful to our partners and Seaworks Maritime Precinct for helping to make this long-awaited event a reality and for supporting Fever’s mission to democratise access to culture and live entertainment.”
The exhibition will be on display until Sunday, May 19.
