About the Item

Archival pigment print Signed and numbered, verso 20 x 24 inches, sheet (Edition of 15) 30 x 40 inches, sheet (Edition of 8) This photograph is offered by ClampArt, located in New York City. The series, "Show," is photographer Henry Horenstein’s long-anticipated look at modern burlesque. The photographs were made from 2001 to 2009, and serve as an homage to the neo-burlesque resurgence of the last several years. The noir-styled images in "Show" are variously amusing, sexy, and harsh — true reflections of the world they document. The book covers a myriad of burlesque-style performance, including drag, fetish, and sideshow. Horenstein says, “These performers are today’s version of the ‘starving artist’ — living on the margins and delivering their personal expression through song, dance, comedy, and narrative — charged sexually and often highly political.” "Show" includes portraits of many of burlesque’s most recognizable performers, including Dita Von Teese and Catherine D’lish, Angie and Helen Pontani, Peek-A-Boo Point, Julie Atlas Muz, Miss Saturn, Dirty Martini, Jackie Beat, Bonnie Dunn, Verushka — and the legendary Murray Hill. Henry Horenstein's photographs have been exhibited nationally at the Annenberg Space for Photography; the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; and the Southeast Museum for Photography; among others. He is Professor of Photography at the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence.
