Photograph from Weird Beauty exhibit, Michael Thompson, Ruffled Neck, New York City, 2007
Calling all New Yorkers - starting January 16 and continuing through September 6, the International Center of Photography will open its Year of Fashion exhibits. Four exhibits will be shown from January 16 to May 3, then the remaining three will be shown May 15 through September 6. This is a must-see for anyone interested in fashion, because photography largely tells the story of its history, and how we arrived at where we are today. It has changed the way our society understands clothing, not only though styling, but choice of model, location, mood and the story it tells.
Exhibits include:
Edward Steichen: In High Fashion, The Conde Nast Years, 1923-1937
Weird Beauty: Fashion Photography Now
This is Not a Fashion Photograph: Selections from the ICP Collection
Munkasci's Lost Archive
Avedon Fashion: Photographs, 1944-2000
David Seidner: Paris Fashion, 1945
John Wood: Quiet Protest
