The Italian-born photographer Paolo Roversi moved to Paris in 1973 and over the next 50 years, he became one of the top fashion photographers in Europe. He’s worked for some of the most prestigious magazines and fashion brands including Vogue France, Vogue Italia, Egoïste, Yohji Yamamoto, Romeo Gigli, and Rei Kawakubo for Comme des Garçons.
His style is more like romantic, Renaissance portraits, with blurry, sepia-toned images in black and white and color. There’s a mystery and depth to the photos that are usually missing in most fashion photography, which tends to be slick and more commercial-driven.
The exhibition displays 140 magnificent and unique photos.
Until July 14, 2024
