Capturing the giants

Most people don’t pay attention to magazine photo bylines, but unless you’ve lived like the kid from Into The Wild for the past four decades, you probably know who Annie Leibovitz is. Now you can see a major body of her work, only a short day trip away, as Columbus’ Wexner Center for the Arts hosts the exhibition “Annie Lebovitz” from September 20 through December 30. Leibovitz worked at Rolling Stone in the 70s — shooting the famed John clutching Yoko naked photo — and Vanity Fair from the 80s to present. As the world changed and musicians became walking gods, Lebovitz turned capturing them into a form of art.
