Thursday, September 29 through Saturday, October 1, 2011 at the Gagosian Gallery, 17-19 Davis Street, London W1K 3DE. Gagosian Gallery is pleased to present Salon Beauties, an exhibition of photographs by Evelyn H. Lauder, the artist's third exhibition with Gagosian Gallery. The exhibition, to benefit The Breast Cancer Research Foundation, continues Lauder's long commitment to raising awareness and funds for the Foundation's work.



Salon Beauties showcases mid-century porcelain vases depicting women's heads, photographed
to create bold shadows accentuating their theatricality. Known for her exploration of light in photography, Lauder uses shadow, light and composition to depict dramatic moods. The photographs convey Lauder’s unique eye for beauty and ability to create stories in her artworks.

The exhibition will also include a preview of this fall's Pink Swan Project in New York. Three pink Swan Chairs by London based designers, Margherita Maccapani Missoni, Kelly Hoppen, and Holly Fulton for Swarovski will be on view.

All proceeds from this exhibition will benefit UK based research projects funded by BCRF.
