An evocative and outstanding example from Sherman's highly acclaimed Centerfolds series, the elongated horizontal format was inspired by the open
spread of the
magazine, Cindy Sherman's Centerfolds respond to the popular photo
spreads made famous in the pages of
Playboy magazine Designed to give maximum exposure to the female form in these top - shelf publications, the centerfold was the prime showground where women were looked at and admired.
In 2014, Neville Wakefield,
Playboy's Creative Director of Special Projects, invited Minter to contribute to a special issue of the
magazine featuring artist - designed photo
spreads.
