Chicks on Skis


Gee, what can you say? Two pictures are worth millions of words about objectification, be it of the self, like Leni Riefenstahl on the cover of the February 17, 1936 issue of Time magazine, or by agreeing to be objectified by Sports Illustrated like Lindsey Vonn.

Lindsey Vonn on the cover. Nice pose.























"Leni Riefenstahl, Hitler’s protégée, photographed by Martin Munkacsi, on a shoot that also produced his cover for Time." --The New Yorker, March 19, 2007


And if I re-publish them, then what does that do?
