Bill Cunningham exhibition

In March, the New York Historical Society is mounting an exhibition of photographer Bill Cunningham’s project, Façades.

Scouring the city’s thrift stores, auction houses, and street fairs for vintage clothing, and scouting sites on his bicycle, Cunningham generated a photographic essay entitled Façades, which paired models — in particular his muse, fellow photographer Editta Sherman — in period costumes with historic settings.
