Starting today, “(re) Framing Conversations: Photographs by Richard Avedon, 1946–1965” is displaying new portraits in this acclaimed photography exhibition.

Located in the museum’s culture wing, one of the sections explores how the implementation of the Hays Code in Hollywood from 1934 to 1968, in part, guided the portrayal of married couples on-screen, and how women navigated different relationships with sexuality.

In Avedon’s fashion photography, the portraiture often represented the public perception of beauty, glamor, and sex appeal. In this set of photographs, the women Avedon photographed projected their sense of self.

In this portrait, Mae West touches the muscular arm of a younger and shirtless Mr. America 1954, Richard DuBois. West’s forthright attitude exudes a sense of empowerment and nods toward the ways she challenged some of the social conventions of her time.

As always, we’re open every day except Christmas Day, from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Come take a look!

The exhibition was made possible by generous support from Judy and Leonard Lauder, with additional funding from Marcia and Frank Carlucci and the William Talbott Hillman Foundation.
