Culled from the archives of Magnum Photos, the world's preeminent photo agency, "Pop 60s" celebrates the visionaries, icons and memorable moments of the decade that transformed the fabric of society. From Andy Warhol, Twiggy and James Bond to Beatlemania, biker culture and geodesic domes, the reverberations of the Swinging Sixties are felt in today's art, music, design and fashion. This phenomenal collection of photographs spans the globe, including images taken of Tokyo nightlife, Brazilian Carnaval and art happenings in New York City. Renowned photographers such as Dennis Stock, Eve Arnold, Danny Lyon, Thomas Hoepker, Elliott Landy, and many others contribute both their best-loved and seldom seen photographs. From naked spectators at the Isle of Wight Festival to literati at Truman Capote's Black and White Ball, "Pop 60s" captures the spirit, style and attitude of an unforgettable era.
