The In The Pink Art Advisory space, at Quinta Shopping in Quinta do Lago, unveiled a new exhibition yesterday (April 3), celebrating the extraordinary career of Steve Schapiro.
In The Pink Gallery has gained renown for showcasing global artists from the photography industry, and this exhibition is no exception.
Steve Schapiro is recognised as one of the most important photojournalists of all time, having distinctively captured defining moments of the 20th century.
