ICP (International Center for Photography) presently has two fashion photography exhibitions up, Weird Beauty: Fashion Photography Now and Edward Steichen: In High Fashion The Conde Naste Years.
I made a bet with myself before entering the exhibit that I would not find a single photograph that reflected my point of view in regards to fashion. As I exited the Fashion Photography Now portion of the exhibit, I felt confident that victory was at hand.
However, this little gem of Marion Morehouse by Edward Steichen was right around the corner. I snapped one photo before the guard informed me that there is no photography allowed in the photography museum.
I was pleased to lose the bet. Good thing stakes are low when you are betting against yourself.
