These pieces are part of Toronto's Contact Photography Exhibition, and much of it was installed/site specific in areas around the city---I love that!
The one below (sorry for the awful glare) were part of a three part installation by Hank Willis Thomas--this one was called "Fair Warning" where he repurposed images from cigarette campaigns displaying models from the 1970s and 80s--like IMAN!!! He is ultimately looking at representations of black identity in photography--all these images were fantastic, and put on billboards and posters--the cigarettes are all removed from the women's fingers so they're all posing without the object of the advertisement.
Iman is flawless--look at how young she was here below! Exquisite!
Raj looking more fabulous than the model!
