The photography of women...

Bergdorf Goodman celebrates the release of the book Women in Art by Reed Karkoff. Beautiful black and white photographs from the book are mounted and hung, and a few mannequins complete the look. From Amazon: Figures of Influence features intimate black-and-white portraits of leading women in the contemporary art community. From Valentina Castellani, Almine Rech, and Jeanne Greenberg Rohatyn to Dominique Lévy, Marianne Boesky, and Lucy Chadwick, each woman possesses undeniable talent, creativity, and intelligence making them prominent figureheads of renowned galleries, museums, and institutions across the globe. Complementing each image is an art questionnaire following in the spirit of Assouline's bestselling Proust Questionnaire and Fashion Questionnaire personally completed by each woman along with selected works of art. A true objet'd art, Women in Art: Figures of Influence offers a unique window into the feminine side of the art world.
