76 culturedmag.com As the London Design Biennale and London Fashion Week intersect, a new gallery, Maison Mais Non, harnesses this synergy in its inaugural exhibition, "The Extraordinary Process." The show, which continues a conversation that took place between Zaha Hadid, Patrik Schumacher and the gallery, challenges architects and fashion designers to examine innovative technologies of the present and imagine how they will evolve to shape the future. Among those included in the show are Stephen Jones, Iris van Herpen, Minimaforms and Peter Do. MAISONMAISNON.COM Susan Sontag couldn't have known how right she was when she called Annie Leibovitz's 1999 Women portfolio "a work in progress." Now, more than 15 years later, the series takes on a new life in "Women: New Portraits," an exhibition commissioned by UBS that's been on a 10-city tour since the start of the year. Coming to New York in November—at a yet disclosed location—the exhibition features images of Gloria Steinem, Lena Dunham, Joan Didion and Kara Walker, as well as several never-before-seen portraits to be unveiled in New York.
