Commentary, Prints & Exhibitions

Commentary:
“Nobody looking at John Loengard’s pictures can fail to find them convincing, or to recognize the imagination, sensitivity and the humanity of the man who took them…. Loengard always captures something unpredictable in an image. It’s a technique with a powerful result.”

—(The Manchester Guardian, 2005)

“John Loengard makes magic with his camera.”

—(CBS Sunday News, 1987)

“It’s fair to say photographer John Loengard is a Life magazine legend.”

—(New York magazine, 2016)

“Photographer and picture editor, mentor and oracle, curator and historian, critic and scholar—over the years, John Loengard has assumed all of these roles, with élan and focus, obstinacy and whip-smart intelligence.”

—(Vanity Fair magazine, 2005)

“Loengard has counted everyone from monarchs to pop stars among his subjects. Vanity Fair magazine once called him ‘an oracle’, but he shrugs off such praise. ‘Taking a photograph,’ he says, ‘is as simple as boiling an egg.’”

—(The Telegraph (UK), 2016)
