Summary: When Ida Kar came to London in 1945, she found a new bohemia. With characteristic ebullience and determination, she spent the next fifteen years portraying it. She photographed tirelessly almost every new and important writer and artist, from Bridget Riley to Eugene Ioneco, Doring Lessing to T.S. Eliot. Her portraits had in John Kasmin's words an 'instinctive magic'. Her documentary studies of London street life, and her brilliant explorations of her homeland Armenia and Castro's Cuba exploded on the British cultural scene
