For the release of Patti LaBelle’s third solo studio album and the related concert, Epic Records commissioned Push Pin alumnus Isadore Seltzer to devise four portraits of the versatile singer, ranging in style from photorealism to 1980s postmodernism. LaBelle was especially known for her flawless makeup, something that Seltzer might be referencing in his design.
