About My Avatar:
"She tosses her head back in laughter as he holds her hands in his. The playful wind picks up the corners of her Dior coat and they glide through the Parisian square, Place de la Concorde. Their bodies pull toward each other and then arch away. He balances on one foot with careless ease, with all the grace of Fred Astaire on roller skates. This iconic 1956 image of fashion model Suzy Parker and her unlikely male counterpart Robin Tattersall epitomizes the theme of theater and illusion that penetrates Richard Avedon's work. In fact, on the other side of Avedon's lens, nobody is roller skating, there is no trace of wind and the couple isn't even moving. When medical student Robin Tattersall walked into Avedon's studio to do some part-time modeling to help pay for school, he didn't realize a proficiency in roller skating was a job requirement. After many failed attempts to skate through the streets of Paris, the photograph was ultimately turned into a still image, with both models balancing in place. It is not the wind that picks up the corners of Parker's coat but very thin cables tied to each end. The theatricality in the image of Parker and Tattersall on roller skates is also evident throughout the whole body of Avedon's work. For the care that he took in contriving his pieces, Avedon was as much a director as a photographer (b.1923–d.2004)."
