BODY PERFORMANCE - Reopening on June 25, 2020 #reopeningday5 Viviane Sassen has been inspiring the fashion photo world for years with a highly distinctive approach. She also works primarily with the human body as her subject, sometimes capturing it in extreme contortions for a shot. She stages her models in unexpected ways, coloring their skin, obscured by shadow, mirrored, superimposed by objects, and often abstracted by cropping or framing the images, a method we know from Surrealism. She sometimes inverts the generally valid order of above and below, which results in a sense of disorientation for the viewer.

We look forward to welcoming you to the foundation!⁠ #helmutnewtonfoundation #helmutnewton #reopeningcountdown #welovephotography #berlinmuseum #bodyperformance #photography #photocollection #visitberlin #photolover #vivianesassen⁠

Právě v 70. letech fotil mnoho snímků se sexuální a pornografickou tematikou. Právě nekonvenční přístup k módní fotografii přinesl Newtonovi slávu. Tvrdá práce a sláva však byly vykoupeny zdravotními potížemi, se kterými se potýkal již od úspěšných 70. let.
