II. 74 Brus". - "Diane Arbus' irritierende Fotografien von Freaks und Exzentrikern waren in der internationalen Kunstszene bereits bekannt, als sie sich 1971 das Leben nahm. Ein Jahr nach ihrem Tod wurden auf der Biennale in Venedig zehn ins Monumentale vergrößerte Aufnahmen ihrer wunderlichen Menschen gezeigt (Zwerge, Transvestiten, Nudisten), die zur `überwältigenden Sensation des amerikanischen Pavillons'; wurden.
