Frontal View, Geoffrey Beene Fashion Show
1990, printed 1991

A dynamic black and white photograph capturing a woman in mid-twirl during a performance, her dress lifted by the motion, revealing patterned stockings. She is holding a bouquet of flowers, and her arm is raised in a gesture of excitement or celebration. The blurred background suggests an audience and a chandelier, indicating an indoor venue, possibly a theater or ballroom.
