man ray & lee miller at the legion of honor

On Sunday, I went to the new Legion of Honor exhibit: Man Ray | Lee Miller: Partners in Surrealism.Both artists are Americans, and they met while living in Paris in the late 1920's. So much incredible art (across many genres) happened in Paris during that time, and this exhibit also provides a decent sampling of Ray and Miller's contemporaries (Pablo Picasso and Alexander Calder among them). Lee Miller was Man Ray's model, lover, student, and undeniably a collaborator to his body of work. From 1929 to 1932, they developed what turned out to be the most memorable work of both their careers. Though they lived together for only three years, the exhibition's photographs, drawings, paintings and manuscripts examine the lingering effect each had on the other's art throughout their lives. A preview of my favorites from the exhibit are below... what do you think of these?

Jean Paul Gaultier is a nonconformist fashion designer, bending society's definition of what's "pretty" by creating masterfully crafted haute couture. This exhibition is superlative to all the fashion exhibitions that have been shown at De young combined.  Gaultier is a fashion leader in pushing the limits of what's possible.
Odile Gilbert has many memorable wigs displayed on the mannequins in this show.  She is also the leading female of the editorial hair world.  Both residing in Paris, Odile and Gaultier have collaborated on many shows.  Gaultier has obviously influenced Odile's creative exploration in ways that have advanced the art of hairstyling. Would you wear any of these styles?! Which one?
