Carnival Strippers: Photographs by Susan Meiselas

May 26–Sept 9, 2000

A black and white photograph capturing a lively scene, possibly at a concert or public event. In the foreground, a woman is seated with her arms crossed, wearing glasses and a collared shirt. To the left, another person's legs are visible, standing with one foot on a raised surface, wearing high-heeled sandals. In the background, a man is holding a microphone, suggesting he is performing or speaking to the crowd. Lights are strung up in the distance, contributing to the festive atmosphere.
