800 Broad Street
Co-Curated by Luisa Pinzon-Romera

“A fable of fashion and film. In a time long ago, we became magicians. Our goal was to cast spells, creating visions of grandeur. Beautifully adorned and elegantly dressed women, and handsome, fearless men engaged in a lifestyle we all dreamed of: wealth, success, and eternal youth. This was a time before AI-generated Photoshop technology. We were the producers of a great show, showcasing the best clothes and perfect makeup on the most beautiful models, engaged in flights of fantasy. Romance in the moonlight, jet setting to exotic locales around the globe – we frolicked in the sun, sipping wine in linen clothing and vintage props, dancing and laughing… until we ran out of film!” – Stafford Woods
