In December 1992 Exit Art inaugurated their new exhibition space at 578 Broadway in New York with an ambitious show entitled "Fever." Jeanette Ingberman and Papo Colo included Shirin Neshat's photography in the exhibition, introducing her work to the public for the very first time. Presenting an of the moment overview of the new American art of the period, "Fever" was immensely popular and debuted to great critical praise.
Soon afterwards Ingberman acquired Face to Face with God and installed it over her desk, where it remained until her death. The acquisition was very meaningful for Neshat who recalls it vividly, stating, "I do remember that I was very touched that Jeanette purchased this photo, as in that period I was not really active or popular in any form of sale or critical acclaim. I do remember this piece was hanging in her office in the Broadway gallery for a long time and that always made me very proud that she kept it so close to her."
