Inez & Vinoodh at Gagosian

Opening next week is this show from star fashion photography duo Inez & Vinoodh, their first with Gagosian. Partners in life and work for 25 years, Inez & Vinoodh were among the first photographers to harness the full potential of digital manipulation in portraying the human condition. For this exhibition, individual works have been sized to be installed edge to edge in trios, creating momentary associations between works from different epochs and of diverse subjects and origins. In one pairing, a close-cropped black and white portrait of a prone Lady Gaga is offset by a horizontal arrangement of a single anemone, a carnation, and dark calla lilies; in a trio, the back of a long-haired youth is placed alongside Gaga as her alter ego Joe and an exquisite study of lilies-of-the-valley.
Thu 24 Jan–Sat 9 Mar. Tue-Sat 11am-7pm.
