LA - Michael Brennan "Muhammad Ali, 1977" (11.10.11)

Michael Brennan’s Muhammad Ali

DWR Beverly Boulevard Studio and Artworks Gallery (http://www.artworksgallery.com/) invite you to join us as we showcase the black and white photography of subject Muhammad Ali by National Portrait Gallery artist Michael Brennan. According to Artworks, “The original image [“1977”] resulted from a unique intimacy between Michael Brennan, and Ali, who wanted to be helpful to the young photographer.” At the time, Ali was training in Deer Park, Pa., for his come-from-behind win against Earnie Shavers at Madison Square Garden, and Brennan’s report with Ali allowed him to capture the session on film. Cocktails and light snacks will be served.
