We were lucky to catch this collection of over two hundred original prints, and loved going on such a provocative journey. Raw reality and beauty were consistent themes throughout his work, expressed in fashion, nudes and portraits.

Taking a retrospective angle, the exhibition also features a film made by June Newton about the man behind the camera, “Helmut by June”, shown in a mini theater in the last room.

Seeing this selection of Helmut Newton’s work all in one place was breathtaking. Amazing exhibition! –LM and Jesse
