As part of an international campaign to broaden the definition of beauty, Dove has sponsored a touring exhibit featuring the work of celebrated female photographers. Annie Leibovitz, Sam Taylor-Wood, Ellen Von Unwerth and Julie Moos, among others, capture women of all sizes and backgrounds in a 60-image show that returns to Canada after visiting Europe and the U.S. "As a beauty company, it's important for us to be an agent of change in how society defines beauty,' says Dove marketing manager Erin Iles. "We're thrilled to showcase beauty in a fresh, authentic way."

See for yourself: The exhibit runs August 5 to 14, 2005 at the Toronto Eaton Centre; September 2 to 11, 2005 at Laval’s Carrefour Laval; September 23 to October 2, 2005 at Winnipeg's Polo Park Shopping Centre; and October 14 to 23, 2005 at Calgary's Chinook Centre.
