Philippe Halsman, ‘Dali and Rhinoceros’ 1956
A print made after Halsman’s death sold at Christie’s for $2,301 in 2008.
“In fact, Dali once described his amusement upon learning that a rhino copulates for an hour and a half and, like himself, has an anal fixation and is given to studying its own stool.”

Immediate Family
Mann is perhaps best known for Immediate Family, her third collection, published in 1992. The NY Times said, “Probably no photographer in history has enjoyed such a burst of success in the art world.” The book consists of 65 black and white photographs of her three children, all under the age of 10. Many of the pictures were taken at the family’s remote summer cabin along the river, where the children played and swam in the nude. Many explore typical childhood themes (skinny dipping, reading the funnies, dressing up, vamping, napping, playing board games) but others touch on darker themes such as insecurity, loneliness, injury, sexuality and death. The controversy on its release was intense, including accusations of child pornography (both here and abroad) and of contrived fiction with constructed tableaux. One image of her 4 year old daughter (Virginia at 4) was censored by the Wall Street Journal with black bars over her eyes, nipples and vagina [sic]. Mann herself considered these photographs to be “natural through the eyes of a mother, since she has seen her children in every state: happy, sad, playful, sick, bloodied, angry and even naked.”
