A new retrospective in Sussex focuses on Eve Arnold’s pioneering fashion photography and photojournalism that tackled themes of social injustice, civil rights, religion, power, fame and sexuality

“Eve Arnold loved human stories and she really cared.

“She had a lot of empathy, and spent a lot of time researching people and talking to them, really getting to know them. Arnold never set out to be a photographer; after her marriage hit the rocks in 1948, shortly after the birth of her only child, Frank.
