  • Remembering Ernst Haas
    Special Report: Remembering Ernst Haas September 12, 2016 By Eric Meola “No photographer has worked more successfully to express the sheer physical joy of seeing.” — John Szarkowski, on Ernst Haas Thirty years have passed since the photographer Ernst Haas died on September 12, 1986. Haas was to color photography what Robert Frank was to black and white: a revolutionary. Looking at his work it is impossible to separate the person, his images and his words. Often called the ‘poet’ of photography, no other photographer influenced my generation as much as Haas did, and in a world of sound bites, Instagram and tweets, his writings are a bridge to another time when photography was a profoundly different medium and craft: In every artist there is poetry. In every human being there is the poetic element. We know, we feel, we believe…one cannot photograph art. One can only live it in the unity of his vision, as well as in the breadth of his humanity, vitality, and understanding. There is no formula—only man with his conscience speaking, writing, and singing in the new hieroglyphic "Pamplona, Spain 1956," by Ernst Haas language of light and time. — Ernst Haas Haas was born in Vienna in 1921 and famously bartered several kilos of butter in post-war Europe for his first camera, a Rolleiflex. At the invitation of Robert Capa he joined Magnum in 1949, and in 1951 he moved to the United States. In 1953, Life magazine ran 24 pages of his photographs of New York City in two consecutive issues, and in 1962 a retrospective of his work was the first color photography exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

I visualised them in the costume and with the hairstyle of one of those periods, or even naked in some mythological scene: partly because I like fantasising about bygone ages, but more because, as a photographer, I prefer discovering unexpected beauties, rather than celebrating those that, in my eyes, are somewhat devalued by general admiration. I have to admit that in the beginning I wasn’t a great connoisseur of classical painting. But little by little, as this game of associations went on and as the project took shape, I began to revisit museums and to assemble a small library of art books, which in turn helped to feed my phantasies. » Frank Horvat Frank Horvat was born in 1928 in Abbazia, Italy. He has lived in Switzerland, India, England, France and the United States.

  • 17TH WESTLICHT PHOTO AUCTION Friday, March 9, 2018, 5 Pm
    17TH WESTLICHT PHOTO AUCTION Friday, March 9, 2018, 5 pm “Schönheit und Abgrund“ (beauty and the abyss) is the motto of this year’s celebrations of Modernism in Vienna. Gustav Klimt was one of the protagonists who shaped the intellectually vibrant, cosmopolitan city around 1900. He died a hundred years ago. In the photograph taken by Moriz Nähr in 1912, Gustav Klimt poses very much alive and not the least bit abyssal in his studio, petting his cat and glancing at the camera with vivid and warm-hearted eyes. It is one of his most famous portraits (estimate: 24,000-28,000 Euro) and is now on offer at the upcoming 17th WestLicht Photo Auction, only one of the highlights among more than 200 photographs and complementary rare treasures from the medium of the photobook. Klimt is accompanied by further Austrian masters of photography from the early 20th century like Rudolf Koppitz, Heinrich Kühn, Ferdinand Schmutzer, Madame d’Ora and Trude Fleischmann. The latter produced an enchanting portrait of the famous state opera dancer Tilly Losch, which is estimated at 2,500 to 3,000 Euro. Like Klimt, Czech photographer František Drtikol was a master of the female nude. Two works by him, “Untitled (Nude with shadow)”, 1926 (estimate: 9,000-10,000 Euro) and “Untitled (Backlit nude)”, c. 1926 (estimate: 7,000-9,000 Euro), are up for auction. Both come from the holdings of German photographer Grete Leistikow and display a cubist and art déco influence in their geometric elements, the expressively dynamic poses and the dramatic lighting.

This exhibition is a collaboration with MAGNUM PHOTOS and PICTO and a celebration of the seventy years of partnership between two important institutions in the photo world. This exhibition consists of three parts - YESTERDAY, TODAY and TOMORROW - and is an overview of this continuous collaboration since 1950. It is presented through the work of nineteen photographers and more than 100 prints (vintage and modern). Curated by Carole Naggar October 29 - December 20, 2020 Opening: October 29, 2020, 2 p.m. - 9 p.m. MAGNUM PHOTOS was founded in Paris in 1947 by Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, George Rodger and David 'Chim' Seymour in response to World War II and the need to observe and report on the state of the world.

Founded in 1950 by Pierre and France Gassmann, PICTO produced works for Magnum's founders such as Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa and Chim, as well as other notable artists such as William Klein, Willy Ronis, Robert Doisneau and Edouard Boubat. Photography is an innovative medium that records history and change and deals with them. This exhibition celebrates leading figures in the field and offers a journey through the medium of the past 70 years that invites us to imagine its future. 70 YEARS OF CORRESPONDENCES: MAGNUM PHOTOS AND PICTO 1950-2020 will be on display at RICHARD TAITTINGER GALLERY, 154 Ludlow Street, from October 29th to December 20th, 2020.

Not only did he modernize women’s closets—most importantly introducing pants as essentials—but his extraordinary eye and technique allowed every shape and size to wear his clothes. “My job is to work for women,” he said. “Not only mannequins, beautiful women, or rich women. But all women.” True, he dressed the swans, as Truman Capote called the rarefied group of glamorous socialites such as Marella Agnelli and Nan Kempner, and the stars, such as Lauren Bacall and Catherine Deneuve, but he also gave tremendous happiness to his unknown clients across the world. Whatever the occasion, there was always a sense of being able to “count on Yves.” It was small wonder that British Vogue often called him “The Saint” because in his 40-year career women felt protected and almost blessed wearing his designs.

    MEDIA KIT 2019 EDWARD ENNINFUL OBE A NEW ERA OF BRITISH VOGUE “Before I got the job I spoke to certain women and they felt they were not represented by the magazine, so I wanted to create a magazine that was open and friendly. A bit like a shop that you are not scared to walk into. You are going to see all different colours, shapes, ages, genders, religions. That I am very excited about.” - Editor-In-Chief, Edward Enninful, OBE The first issue under Enninful was The December 2017 issue. VA N E S S A K I N G O R I M B E “I’m excited to assume this highly-coveted role. In a moment when continuous change across the communications; fashion and luxury industries creates dynamic and exhilarating opportunities for the strongest media brands, Vogue’s unrivalled equity sets it apart as the best of the best.” - Publishing Director, Vanessa Kingori, MBE Vanessa is the first new Publishing Director at British Vogue in a quarter of a century.
