Surface View and Getty Images Gallery present the Slim Aarons Collection…

Welcome to the glamorous world of Slim Aarons. Aarons’ style is instantly recognisable and his images are known worldwide. His celebrity work emanates from a sense of a very private view of the lives of his subjects.
….This has much to do with his ability to gain the trust of the individuals he photographed.

Portraits include many of the leading show business and political personalities in America in the 20th Century, as well as imagery depicting the American way of life.

Our collection, in colour, dates from the 1950’s to the 1990’s with the concentration in the 60’s to 80’s, a time when slim pioneered magazine colour photography.
In 1972, Slim produced his celebreated book on society ‘A Wonderful Time’. Getty Images Gallery acquired the images from Slim in 1997.
