A spokesperson says---
“...Yves Saint Laurent and Photography explores the powerful relationship Yves Saint Laurent forged between fashion and photography over four decades, revealing how photography functioned not only as a tool for promotion but also as a creative force that helped define a legacy. Organized in collaboration with the Musée Yves Saint Laurent Paris and the Fondation Pierre Bergé–Yves Saint Laurent, it brings together nearly 300 iconic photographs and archival objects.
Featuring work by celebrated artists such as Richard Avedon, Cecil Beaton, Guy Bourdin, Robert Doisneau, Horst P. Horst, William Klein, Annie Leibovitz, Steven Meisel, Duane Michals, Helmut Newton, Irving Penn, David Seidner, Andy Warhol, and others, the exhibition pairs these photographs with contact sheets, campaign materials, magazines, and personal images. Together, they reveal how Yves Saint Laurent established a blueprint for the way the fashion world is visualized and understood today..."
