Marilyn Monroe 1926-1962
Two British photography magazines are currently featuring Marilyn within their pages. Professional Photography, a monthly, looks at Douglas Kirkland’s photos of Marilyn in its July issue. Meanwhile, the weekly Amateur Photographer (issue 09/07/2016), looks at Andre de Dienes’ work with a young Marilyn and other ‘California Girls’, on display until July 30 in New York.

Andre de Dienes: Marilyn and the California Girls – a rare solo retrospective for the European-born, West Coast photographer – will be on display at the Stephen Kasher Gallery in New York from June 9-July 30, reports the British Journal of Photography. As well as his extraordinary work with Marilyn, the exhibit will also showcase De Dienes’ exotic nudes, taken against the spectacular natural backdrop of California’s desert landscape.
