In addi- tion to elegant fashions, dining, and dynamic entertainment, the evening will include a tribute to A. Alfred Taubman, a longtime museum supporter for whom the DIAs European art wing is named. "Alfred's leadership and generous support over the years is evidence of his A. Alfred commitment to Taubman the museum he so loves',' said Graham W.J. Beal, DIA director. "His contributions of time, talent and energy have been and remain immeasurable, and we are honored to pay tribute to him at this very special event:' Co-chairs for the gala are Lorna Thomas of Detroit and Lila Silverman of Bloomfield Hills. The evening's black-and-white decor takes inspiration from the elegant, dynamic and sometimes whimsical fashion photos in the exhi- bition Avedon Fashion Photographs 1944-2000, which guests will be able to view. Performers in costumes will create a variety of dramatic vignettes inspired by Avedon's photographs, and models will roam the party, striking poses in couture from the 1940s to 2000.
