MonoVisions Black & White Photo Contest 2024

Award winning photojournalist Michael Gaffney captured a rare insider’s view of Ali’s world as his personal photographer in 1977-1978. On Saturday, June 17th, we will open our doors to share with you the life and legacy of Ali through the lens of Michael Gaffney honoring the 1-year anniversary of his passing.

Gaffney’s collection of work entitled, “The Champ” showcases intimate images of depicting the boxer both inside and out of the ring. The Champ is a perfect trilogy (The Man, The Fighter, The Greatest) in a year in the life of Muhammad Ali, taking us on a journey with one of the most extraordinary people in our lifetime. These stories – poignant, hilarious and authentic – reveal Ali’s true courageous heart and go far beyond his glories in the ring.
