The first major exhibition to explore the ways in which photography and celebrity have interacted and changed, with portraits from Vanity Fair's early publishing period (1913–1936) displayed alongside contemporary examples from the magazine's archive (1982–present). This exhibition examines the values, styles, and technologies that have defined both epochs of celebrity and magazine culture.

This exhibition is a collaboration between Vanity Fairand the National Portrait Gallery, London.
