“I think perfection is ugly.
Somewhere in the things humans make,
I want to see scars, failure, disorder, distortion.”

― Yohji Yamamoto



If you’re in Los Angeles from now till August 26, 2012, make sure to drop by the Getty Center to see a major exhibition of photographer Herb Ritts’s work, called L.A. Style. The late Los Angeles-based photographer busted out into the scene in the 1980’s with his distinctive style. His incredibly striking shots of celebrities, athletes and supermodels were different because Ritts drew inspiration from a wide range of sources that included painting, sculpture, film, and the work of such leading fashion and portrait photographers as Richard Avedon and Irving Penn.
