LARRY FINK
EYE CONTACT
Fashion shows put breathtaking women, striking fashions and knowing smiles on the runway to treat the eyes of an audience of beholders. But those confident, direct gazes that models toss off to the spectators don't tell the whole Fashion Week story. A lot of eye-catching work -- from meaningful glances to 1,000-yard stares -- goes on behind the scenes. That's what veteran photojournalist Larry Fink found out when he documented the New York City fashion shows last spring.

The 56-year-old Fink, whose work has appeared in the New York Times Magazine, W and The New Yorker, brought a fresh eye to the chaos and down time backstage, as well as to the Beautiful People-only parties that augment the shows. Fink's next project leaves the glamour of the runways for the grit of the ring: A collection of Fink's boxing photos, taken over the course of more than a decade, will appear in the book "Boxing" and in an exhibit at New York's Whitney Museum of Art in June.
