Our Expertise

Carl Perutz took photographs from   the 1920's through the 1970's.   This pictures included a spectrum   of topics including war, peace, birth, and death.  After joining the   U.S. Army shortly after the Japanese   attack on Pearl Harbor, he rose to the rank of Captain through his work doing   aerial reconnaissance flying in B17's over North Africa, France, and   Germany. 

  

After the war he moved to Paris, met Robert Capa, and joined the photographic agency, Magnum, which gained fame partly as the first agency to specialize in allowing its artists to retain copyright to their images.  Unlike Capa, Carl had seen enough combat by 1946 and he began photographing artists of literature, the visual, the stage, and the screen.  Of his various subjects, working with Helen Keller provided his most powerful experience.   It is, however, his photographs of Marilyn Monroe for which he is becoming best remembered.
