  • Horst: Photographer of Style
    6 September 2014 – 4 January 2015
    Presenting the definitive retrospective exhibition of Horst P. Horst (1906-1999) – one of the leading photographers of the 20th century. In his illustrious 60-year career, Horst worked predominantly in Paris and New York and creatively traversed the worlds of art, fashion, theatre and high society. One of Vogue’s star photographers, the exhibition presents Horst’s iconic fashion images and collaborations with leading designers, models, Hollywood stars and artists including Coco Chanel, Marlene Dietrich and Salvador Dali. Horst: Photographer of Style also explores less well-known aspects of Horst’s work from nude studies to travel photography, his creative process and influences, and legacy as a master photographer.
