Cindy Sherman’s breakthrough work ‘Untitled Film Stills’ made between 1977 & 1980 is a series of sixty-nine black-and-white photographs where the artist appears in various fictitious characters employing elaborate makeup, costumes, and props to transform herself into different female roles inspired by film and television. The witty and provocative body of work has inspired countless interpretations on personal identities, femininity, and the nature of female representation in mass media that have played a role in shaping such imagery. "It seems boring to me to pursue the typical idea of beauty, because that is the easiest and the most obvious way to see the world. It's more challenging to look at the other side.” @cindysherman Pictured here, from the collections, is Untitled Film Still no.48 (Highway), 1979 #CindySherman  #WomensHistoryMonth
