Garry Winogrand and Diane Arbus at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, 1967
1967

Black and white photograph of two people in an elevator. On the left, a man wearing glasses and a coat looks over his shoulder at the camera, holding a phone receiver to his ear. On the right, a woman leans forward, speaking into an intercom system, with papers resting on a small ledge in front of her. The elevator doors are partially open, creating a symmetrical composition.
