IRIS Nights : Susan Anderson "High Glitz: From Cinderella to Malibu Barbie" (6/16)


High Glitz is a close-up and intimate look at America’s child beauty pageants, and in turn our society’s obsession with youth, beauty, fame, and fortune. Susan Anderson’s vibrant portraits of pageant contestants twist notions of sexuality and identity, with a new perspective on this uniquely American subculture. Anderson captures the results of the time-consuming pageant transformation process in exquisite detail.

Susan Anderson will be speaking next Thursday (June 16) at IRIS Nights, a weekly photography lecture series. Reservations are available today at noon and tomorrow at 9:30 am.



ArtsBeat LA interviewed Susan Anderson in 2009 about her book "High Gliz"
