Light Years: A Half-Century Of Images By Roger Deakins

Ray Pride October 8, 2024

Cinematographer Roger Deakins is taking a break from a long and lustrous career that includes sixteen Oscar nominations and two wins. Since art school, where he first had eyes on a career as a photographer, Deakins has shot stills separate from what became a career in film, capturing moments in black-and-white on regular walkabouts in his home of England and elsewhere. From that lovely body of work came the inspiration for this exhibition, where Sir Roger and his wife and creative partner, James Deakins, will appear at the Athenaeum Center in October.
