Thursday night I was lucky enough to make it to the Lillian Bassman exhibition at the Staley Wise Gallery. Ms. Bassman was among the most important fashion photographer's of the 20th century. She took her most significant photographs from the late 40's to the early 60's.
The exhibition titled "Women" was the perfect fit for this display. The New York Times says it perfect..."The clothes have a structured beauty; the gloves are mandatory; the necks are long. Elegant men with cigarettes between their fingers occasionally enter the frame, encountering women who appear utterly indifferent to their attention."
