Steven Kasher Gallery is pleased to present a distinguished body of work by
photographer Cynthia MacAdams. The exhibition will feature over 70 vintage
black and white photographic prints of female artists, activists and intellectuals
from the 1970s, as well as everyday women and nudes. Images from MacAdams’
landmark photography book, Emergence, (Chelsea House, New York and London,
1979) will be exhibited along with photographs that have never before been
published. In her Chelsea debut, MacAdams’ images of pioneering figures of the
women’s movement such as Gloria Steinem, Kate Millett, Judy Chicago and Jane
Fonda, remind us of the monumental steps taken forward during this pivotal
historical era.

The exhibition will feature ten large-format portraits of legendary Supermodels
from the 1970s and 1980s taken in 2009 while Greenfield-Sanders was working
on a project for Vanity Fair magazine. The 11 x 14 inch Ilfochrome limited edition
prints are of Christie Brinkley, Cheryl Tiegs, Beverly Johnson, Carol Alt, Dayle
Haddon, Esme, Karen Bjornson, Kim Alexis, Lisa Taylor and Nancy Donahue.
Timothy writes: I have always been interested in how we deal with aging in our
hopelessly youth oriented society. These beautiful and amazing women, now in
their fifties, were once the reigning queens of American beauty and the
ultimate icons of world-wide marketing.
