"Last spring, in its first foray into modern photography, the Morgan
Library & Museum acquired 67 of Penn's portraits of artists, writers
and musicians. (Thirty-five were donated by Mr. Penn.) The entire
group is temporarily on view in "Close Encounters: Irving Penn
Portraits of Artists and Writers," which complements the library's
collection of 20th-century drawings, manuscripts, books and musical
scores."

"Close Encounters: Irving Penn Portraits of Artists and Writers" is at
the Morgan Library & Museum, 225 Madison Avenue, at 36th Street,
through April 13; (212) 685-0008.
