Of the myths of contemporary society, the female breast is the one most open to discussion. The photographs in this catalogue are insightful, occasionally mad and always provocative, leading the viewer to really see the breast. Considering that many photographs of the breast linger on the aesthetic nude, this book instead focuses on the veiled breast, so much more stimulating to the imagination. The photographs selected are unique, at times surprising and endowed with a language of their own; some are further enhanced with accompanying, often literary, commentary.

Drawn to the mid-zone between documentary and fiction, the photographer-couple Jenny Gage and Tom Betterton have evolved a narrative style of portraiture that approaches and re-approaches their subjects from all angles-a style that has served them well in the field of fashion photography, where they have made great portrait-sequences of Kate Winslet, Salma Hayek and Uma Thurman among others, for major fashion magazines such as Vogue and Elle. Gage and Betterton also collaborate on art projects which they have exhibited widely. In Upstairs, Downstairs & Outside, the couple offers a intimate exploration of three women in various states of nudity, from photographs taken in and around the couple's Brooklyn home over the course of a year. In this beautifully designed volume, Cage and Betterton have forged an informal celebration of the nude form.

«He was born Ira Gallantz in 1932 in the Bronx, but later changed his name to the more exotic-sounding Ara Gallant-and the life he led was indeed an exotic one. Gallant began his professional career in fashion as a hairdresser, working at Bergdorf Goodman department store in New York as one of the city's top colorists. In the mid-1960s, he was approached by Vogue and began to work exclusively on photo assignments, the first hair stylist to be paid to fulfill such a role. Gallant went on to work with many of the great fashion photographers of the period, Richard Avedon, Irving Penn and Bert Stern among them. Perhaps his most notable contribution as a stylist was the introduction of «flying hair», an effect he first used on an Avedon shoot with iconic model Twiggy in 1966, and which is still widely employed today. By the early 1970s, Gallant had begun shooting his own pictures, his first assignment being a set of celebrity portraits for Interview magazine. His work often juxtaposed classic Horst-like compositions with contemporary scenarios. In the early 1980s, Gallant moved to Los Angeles to pursue a directing career, which never happened; in 1990, he committed suicide in a Las Vegas hotel room. This new book tracing Gallant's life and career is edited by David Wills and features photographs by Richard Avedon plus a foreword by Anjelica Huston.»
