The renowned photographer Catherine Opie takes on a challenging documentary project-- an &quot;indirect portrait&quot; of Elizabeth Taylor through her home and possessions. One of America's most celebrated living photographers, Catherine Opie works in series that are remarkably varied in<br>both style and subject matter--from intimate portraits of the<br>LGBTQ community to beautiful, nearly-abstract landscapes<br>featuring ice-fishing houses. Expanding that astonishing<br>range of subjects further is Opie's ambitious recent series of<br>photographs taken at the home of late movie star Elizabeth<br>Taylor. Though glamour and celebrity are not common<br>themes in her work, Opie was inspired by the possibilities this<br>project offered--recalling William Eggleston's series on Elvis<br>Presley's Graceland, or her own photographs of Obama's<br>2008 inauguration, both of which represent indirect portraits<br>of their subjects. The images in this moving collection<br>were culled from photos Opie took over the course of six<br>months, both on the grounds of and inside Taylor's home.<br>The subjects are wildly diverse--a dog-eared remote control<br>manual, close-ups of Taylor's enormous closets, shelves of<br>tchotchkes and priceless works of art--telling more about<br>Taylor's life than any &quot;celebrity&quot; portrait ever could. Through<br>Opie's thoughtful curation, Taylor's home tells a poignant<br>story and reveals the arc of a fascinating life.
