ZIEGFELD GIRLS


On the busy city street, a sign indicates a theater of dazzling culture, outspoken diversity, seductive creativity, and unmistakable genius.
This significant theater is marked with expression, freedom, and imagination. An elaborate idea, inspired by the Folies Bergere of Paris, is set. A remarkably beautiful design, inspired by the talented minds of many, is absorbed. Energy, enthusiasm, and thrill caress the eager atmosphere, as breathtaking exhilaration and exaggeration laugh in delight. In a sudden, united movement, a group of young girls enter through the back curtain of the stage. These significant beauties and flapper queens relish in scandal and flirtatious behavior. They dance the Charleston until the early morning hours, drink illegal liquor when they wish, wear ravishing fashions of knee-bearing appeal, and tantalize men with joy and passion. They begin to tap their wild feet on the stage, wearing elaborate headdresses and irresistible costumes.

Marianne Breslauer
Marianne was born in Berlin, the daughter of the architect Alfred Breslauer (1866–1954) and Dorothea Lessing (the daughter of art historian Julius Lessing). She took lessons in photography in Berlin from 1927 to 1929, and became an admirer firstly of the then well-known portrait photographer Frieda Riess and later of the Hungarian André Kertész, although she saw her future as a photographic reporter. In 1929 she travelled to Paris, where she briefly became a pupil of Man Ray. A year later she started work for the Ullstein photo studio in Berlin, headed up by Elsbeth Heddenhausen, where she mastered the skills of developing photos in the dark-room. Until 1934 her photos were published in many leading magazines such as the Frankfurter Illustrierten, Der Querschnitt, Die Dame, Zürcher Illustrierten and Das Magazin.
