Description

From Where I Stand introduces the very best of Mary McCartney's work from the mid-1990s onward. Mary McCartney's work is characterized by an intimacy that reveals her subjects' true character and humanity. Here, portraits of the likes of Paul and Linda McCartney, Madonna, Bono, Debbie Harry, Dennis Hopper and Kate Moss sit alongside photographs that capture the raw energy of catwalks and concerts, the feverish communion of backstage preparations at the Royal Opera House and the private spaces of home and family. Elegant and always at ease, this is the work of an intelligent, soulful photographer with an authentically intuitive eye.
