Flower Power Flashback

Robert Altman is a visionary artist whose work reflects a rebellious spirit. Altman — not the late filmmaker of the same name — was one of the earliest staff photographers for Rolling Stone magazine, where he documented the cultural changes of the 1960s, from anti-war sit-ins to psychedelic be-ins (above). Many of his '60s images came out in a book last year, and now they're traveling in an exhibition, currently at Idea Generation Gallery in London through August 29.
