Catherine Opie's Dual Exhibitions at Lehmann Maupin Feature Elizabeth Taylor's Home

Catherine Opie presents two concurrent exhibitions at Lehmann Maupin's New York galleries. At the Chrystie Street location on the Lower East Side, "Catherine Opie: 700 Nimes Road" showcases photographs taken between 2010 and 2011 documenting Elizabeth Taylor's residence near Beverly Hills. The Chelsea venue at 536 West 22nd Street hosts "Catherine Opie: Portraits and Landscapes." Both shows offer intimate glimpses into Taylor's opulent world through Opie's lens, revealing personal aspects of the actress's life. The Chrystie Street exhibition runs through February 20, while the Chelsea presentation continues until March 5. Opie's work captures Taylor's glamorous persona and connections to figures like Richard Burton and Michael Jackson. The photographs provide unexpected insights into the Hollywood icon's private spaces and possessions.
