Being Beauteous

I thought beauty contests were politically incorrect, something to be sneered at by all right-thinking women in bovver boots, but London's White Space Gallery - not known for the beauteousness of its contemporary art - has come up trumps with an exhibition curated by Anya Stonelake. Being Beauteous is a "wonderfully thought-out group show" (The Guardian) of photos of Russian beauties strutting their stuff, until 2 June 2007.
