Duffy: The Third Man

Happening in London at the Lucy Bell Gallery right now: a retrospective of the work of British photographer Brian Duffy, sometimes referred to as “The Man Who Shot the 60s.” Duffy captured indelible portraits of iconic figures and is responsible for the unforgettable “Aladdin Sane” image of David Bowie, among others.
