George Lois: The Esquire Covers
This exhibit--at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC until March, 2009--features Esquire covers from 1962-1972. Photographer George Lois "changed the face of magazine design" and dealt with such controversial issues as racism, feminism, and the Vietnam War. Don't miss this exhibit and the images that have become icons of American culture.

"These covers are a great example of the impact of culture on art--and vice versa.
Great illustration of how popular art can create cultural debate and public comment!" Thanks for sharing!
I saw the exhibit and it's fantastic. What I difference between these covers and the New Yorker cover from last week which, while pretending to be cultural commentary, is really just a rip- off of current media hype.
