Including over two hundred works, this exhibition features celebrated masterworks and new acquisitions from the collection by such figures as Diane Arbus , Berenice Abbott , Claude Cahun , Imogen Cunningham , Rineke Dijkstra , Florence Henri , Roni Horn , Nan Goldin , Helen Levitt , Lisette Model , Lucia Moholy , Tina Modotti , Cindy Sherman , Kiki Smith , and Carrie Mae Weems , among many others. The exhibition also highlights works drawn from a variety of curatorial departments, including Bottoms, a large-scale Fluxus wallpaper by Yoko Ono .
