PRESS RELEASE Beyond Blonde by Steve Hiett Talking with Steve Hiett and Philippe Garner Talking with the photographer Steve Hiett on the occasion of the volume Beyond Blonde published by Prestel, on Saturday 27th february 2016 at 5.00 pm at the Galleria Carla Sozzani bookstore. Philippe Garner, Christie's Photographs Deputy Chairman, will dialogue with the author. Since the late 1960s Steve Hiett has been capturing the changing world of fashion through his distinctive, eye-catching photography. Arranged by decades, this collection of Hiett’s work is filled with images that belie the photographer’s nonchalance. Saturated with colour, lighted by dazzling flash work, and often off-center, Hiett’s photographs contain brilliantly composed worlds. They tell stories — and the stories change with time. Hiett says about himself:«I do not think of myself as a "photographer". I think of myself as someone who uses the camera to create images that I see in my head». He adds:« whether I take them in Paris or Miami, my photographs are middle-class stories of the suburbs; they are about being alone and dreaming». In a brief introduction by Philippe Garner, testifies that the beautifully reproduced images in this book are further testament to Steve Hiett’s enduring imprint on the world of fashion photography. After a stint in art school, followed by a brief career as frontman for the psych pop group Pyramid, Steve Hiett discovered fashion photography. His early work appeared in Nova, Marie Claire and the English and French editions of Vogue. In New York he worked as an art director for fashion magazines and for Arthur Elgort’s “Model Manual.” Currently residing in Paris, Hiett works exclusively as a fashion photographer. A selection of Steve Hiett photographs will be shown at Galleria Carla Sozzani from Saturday, February 27th to Saturday, March 26th, 2016.

This Book Is a Compendium of New Wave Posters. It Is Organized Around the Designers (At Last!)
“This book is a compendium of new wave posters. It is organized around the designers (at last!). It emphasizes the key contribution of Eastern Europe as well as Western Europe, and beyond. And it is a very timely volume, assembled with R|A|P’s usual flair, style and understanding.” –CHRISTOPHER FRAYLING, FROM THE INTRODUCTION 2 artbook.com French New Wave A Revolution in Design Edited by Tony Nourmand. Introduction by Christopher Frayling. The French New Wave of the 1950s and 1960s is one of the most important movements in the history of film. Its fresh energy and vision changed the cinematic landscape, and its style has had a seminal impact on pop culture. The poster artists tasked with selling these Nouvelle Vague films to the masses—in France and internationally—helped to create this style, and in so doing found themselves at the forefront of a revolution in art, graphic design and photography. French New Wave: A Revolution in Design celebrates explosive and groundbreaking poster art that accompanied French New Wave films like The 400 Blows (1959), Jules and Jim (1962) and The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964). Featuring posters from over 20 countries, the imagery is accompanied by biographies on more than 100 artists, photographers and designers involved—the first time many of those responsible for promoting and portraying this movement have been properly recognized. This publication spotlights the poster designers who worked alongside directors, cinematographers and actors to define the look of the French New Wave. Artists presented in this volume include Jean-Michel Folon, Boris Grinsson, Waldemar Świerzy, Christian Broutin, Tomasz Rumiński, Hans Hillman, Georges Allard, René Ferracci, Bruno Rehak, Zdeněk Ziegler, Miroslav Vystrcil, Peter Strausfeld, Maciej Hibner, Andrzej Krajewski, Maciej Zbikowski, Josef Vylet’al, Sandro Simeoni, Averardo Ciriello, Marcello Colizzi and many more.

Zone Eleven is a metaphor coined by artist Mike Mandel in his challenge to create a book of Adams’ photographs outside of the bounds of his personal work. Many of these photographs were found in the archives of his commercial and editorial assignments, and from his experimentation with the new Polaroid material of the times.

Gallery SIT DOWN From 29th January to 19th March 2011 In partnership with the laboratory DUPON If Sacha were a colour, an animal, a metaphor, elegance… Coinciding with the exhibition « Sacha, fashion photographer » at the Dutch Institute in Paris, the SITDOWN gallery will put on view a very personal portrait of this reserved and discreet artist through a selection of photographs taken from her work as a whole, most of which will be shown for the first time in order to better discover the meanings behind her works which may be described as elegant as the photographer herself. I don’t know why or for what reason, but I have always held a certain interest in fashion photography and its adverts, in addition to flicking endlessly through the pages of the magazine Marie Claire. I quickly began to associate the name Sacha with the sequences of images in this magazine whose atmosphere and style contrast sharply with those of other photographers, such as Paolo Roversi, Peter Lindbergh or Steve Hiett. I also felt that it was not in Sacha’s intention to form a style per se, and that in actual fact she was ultimately closer to the story than the staging of her photographs; even if her images, which evoke a sense of spontaneity and naturalism, were certainly planned to the smallest detail. Recently, I met Sacha for the first time for the exhibition organised by Françoise Bornstein in her If it were..

Press Release Steve Hiett
PRESS RELEASE STEVE HIETT: BEYOND BLONDE February 13 – April 21, 2019 Opening Reception: Wednesday, February 13, 6-8 pm 10 Corso Como Gallery presents the first exhibition in New York of British fashion photographer Steve Hiett. Curated by Fondazione Sozzani, Beyond Blonde by Steve Hiett features many of Hiett’s renowned images and videos, as well as his Polaroid collages and silkscreens, shown for the first time in the U.S. The exhibition will be on view from February 13 – April 21, 2019. A reception for the artist will be held on February 13, 6 – 8 pm. For almost five decades, Steve Hiett has documented the changing world of fashion through his distinctive pop graphic, and even musical, imagery. Known for his vivid color style lit by using exterior flash, Hiett’s images are characterized by sharp, richly textured figures set against indefinable urban landscapes and radiant blue skies in deep focus. They tell stories, and the stories change with time. Whether it’s 1970s Miami, France in the 1980s, or New York at the end of the 20th century, Hiett creates an of-the-moment impression that feels neither contrived nor self-conscious. “Whether I take them in Paris or Miami, my photographs are middle-class stories of the suburbs; they’re about being alone and dreaming,” he said. Hiett’s work unveils an era of experimental fashion photography that emerged in the late seventies in the British, French and Italian magazines: “Things got simple....a camera and one 35mm lens. This meant I could travel light and keep things as simple as possible.
