Juxtapositions comparing images and attitudes of each society reveal whether the women portrayed are meant to be examples of perfect femininity or the object of scorn, faithful wives or untouchable priestesses or high-living prostitutes.

Herb Ritts (1952–2002) was a Los Angeles–based photographer who established an international reputation for distinctive images of fashion models, nudes, and celebrity portraits. During the 1980s and 1990s, Ritts was sought out by leading fashion designers such as Armani, Gianfranco Ferrè, Donna Karan, Calvin Klein, Valentino, and Versace, as well as magazine editors from \u003ci\u003eGQ, Interview, Rolling Stone\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eVanity Fair\u003c\/i\u003e, among others, to lend glamour to their products and layouts. Largely self-taught, Ritts developed his own style, one that often made use of the California light and landscape and helped to separate his work from his New York–based peers. From the late 1970s until his untimely death from AIDS in 2002, Ritts's ability to create photographs that successfully bridged the gap between art and commerce was not only a testament to the power of his imagination and technical skill, but also marked the synergistic union between art, popular culture, and business that followed in the wake of the Pop Art movement of the 1960s and 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn exhibition of the same name was on view at the Getty Center April 3 through August 12, 2012; at the Cincinnati Art Museum October 6 through December 30, 2012; and at the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, Florida, February 23 through May 19, 2013.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaul Martineau is associate curator in the Department of Photographs at the J.

His photographic career began in 1938 in Portland, Oregon, with assignments for the WPA (Works Progress Administration). After serving in World War II and studying art history at Columbia University, White’s focus shifted toward the metaphorical.

As fashion changed over the next century, so did the photography of fashion. Steichen’s modernist approach was forthright and visually arresting. In the 1930s the photographer Martin Munkácsi pioneered a gritty, photojournalistic style. In the 1960s Richard Avedon encouraged his models to express their personalities by smiling and laughing, which had often been discouraged previously. Helmut Newton brought an explosion of sexuality into fashion images and turned the tables on traditional gender stereotypes in the 1970s, and in the 1980s Bruce Weber and Herb Ritts made male sexuality an important part of fashion photography. Today, following the integration of digital technology, teams like Inez \u0026amp; Vinoodh and Mert \u0026amp; Marcus are reshaping our notion of what is acceptable—not just aesthetically but also technically and conceptually—in a fashion photograph. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lavishly illustrated survey of one hundred years of fashion photography updates and reevaluates this history in five chronological chapters by experts in photography and fashion history.

By 1960, they were dating and living in New York, beginning decades of sex, love, competition, and reconciliation—an entanglement that changed American art forever.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nSurrounded by a robust creative scene populated by Susan Sontag, Andy Warhol, Fran Lebowitz, John Waters, and David Wojnarowicz, Thek and Hujar’s profoundly influential careers, from the early 1960s through the late 1980s, differed as much as the men themselves. The unpredictable and often overlooked Thek crafted visceral installations and sculptures, while Hujar, celebrated and sociable, took penetrating portraits of his world, queer and otherwise. Yet even at their most estranged, and even after their deaths from AIDS, both men were united by a pursuit of liberation—from artistic and sexual limits, from anything short of changing the world.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAndrew Durbin’s \u003ci\u003eThe Wonderful World That Almost Was\u003c\/i\u003e unravels, for the first time, the intertwined stories and work of two boundary-burning, paradigm-tilting, never more relevant American artists.
